The cross stands for the ecclesiastical patronage of the exaltation of the cross , the will- o'- the- wisps recalls the legend of the “Lichtl in der Au”, the restless soul of a criminal who drowned in a pond while on the run, waiting for redemption. The wavy bar symbolizes the Aschach drought flowing through the municipality .
