Shield parted per fess, above Sable a boar's head Or armed Argent and tongued Gules; beneath Or three bulrushes Vert in fan with spadices Sable.
Meaning:
The boar's head is a differentiation of the family arms of the Lords of Röhrmoos, which displayed a demi-boar. The bulrushes are referring to the original swamps in the area. Röhrmoss is one of the oldest municipalities in Upper Bavaria and was first mentioned in 774.
