history
The coat of arms was designed by the Freising heraldist Theodor Goerge .
The coat of arms symbolically shows the two most important points in the history of Langenpreising. The family coat of arms of the Counts of Preysing (in red a silver battlement wall) and the coat of arms of the Obermünster monastery (in blue, 9 golden heraldic lilies) are combined. The counts of Preysing had demonstrably large estates in Langenpreising since the 11th century. The town's church was donated to Obermünster Abbey in the 10th century, in which it remained until the 19th century.
The government of Upper Bavaria approved the use of the coat of arms by the municipality by resolution of September 28, 1982.
