history

The coat of arms was designed by the Freising heraldist Theodor Goerge .

In the Middle Ages, Buch am Buchrain was the seat of an aristocratic von Puecher family , on whose coat of arms the current municipal coat of arms of Buch can be traced back in part. The family, which can be traced back to the 14th century in Buch, also used a right upper corner in black, which was taken over unchanged into the municipal coat of arms.

The bull's head in Obereck comes from the coat of arms of the Sandizell family . This goes back to the fact that in the 16th century the pastor of Buch, Canon Moritz von Sandizell , was elected Bishop of Freising . At the same time, the bull symbolizes the agricultural importance and structure of the community.

The beech leaves that grow from the lower left corner of the upper corner stand for the place name.

The government of Upper Bavaria approved the use of the coat of arms by the municipality with a resolution of June 10, 1983.
