Shield parted by a bend sinister wavy Argent; above right Sable a lion´s head Or, crowned and tongued Gules; beneath Gules a sword Argent in bend sinister hilted Or.
Meaning:

The lion´s head is a differentiation of the Palatine lion and us stressing the relationships to the Wittelsbach kin as Palatine Counts of Rhine, proven since 1285. The sword is taken from the arms of the Kreß kin, patricians from
Banner and arms were approved on 8 December 1987 by district governor (Regierungspräsident) of Oberpfalz.
