Rott Coat of Arms

Shield Gules, on a triplemount issuant Vert two connected towers Argent with cone roofs Azure, superimposing an enhanced fess wavy Argent.
Meaning:
The towers belong to a church. The municipality adopted the central element of the arms of the Benedictine Rott Abbey. The two towers appeared first on an abbot's seal from 1358. The church is a local landmark and one of the most important Baroque churches of Upper Bavaria. The fess wavy is representing the name giving Inn River, the triplemount a local hill.
