Petershausen Coat of Arms

Shield parted per bend sinister, above right Argent a fish Azure in bend sinister, beneath left Sable a plough Or.
Meaning:
The plough is stressing the rural character of the municipality. The fish is symbolising the location on the banks of the Glonn River and is an attribute of St. Ulrich, local patron saint of Mühldorf Village. The tinctures white and blue are those of Bayern, black and yellow those of former Bishopric of Freising.
