Shield Or, on top of a triplemount Vert issuant from base an embattled tower Gules with gable, superimposing a bar wavy Azure.
Meaning:

The tower is reminding on Rauhenlechsberg Castle and on the belfry of the local parish church of the Holy Cross.The colours blue and gold had been those of Polling Monastery, to which the parish belonged.
