coat of arms

Official description of the municipal coat of arms awarded in 1980: In green over a lowered, silver bar, inside two red disks with a gold paw cross each, a gold pinwheel.

The symbol of the western wind turbine from the occupation period after the Second World War , which is reduced to just 12 blades in the symbol, on a farm in Unterroithen is the symbol of the community. Of the previously numerous “wind wells” for pumping groundwater, only this one has survived today. The green should reflect the agrarian dominated landscape of the place, since the majority of the community area is taken up by fields and forests. The two crosses represent the two former churches in Mairlambach and Mernbach. The community colors are green-white-red.
