Shield parted per pale, at dexter Azure two fleur-de-lis Or in bend, at sinister Argent a papal cross Gules.
Meaning:
Both quarters are referring to former ecclestiastical manorial lords in Regensburg. The fleur-de-lis are a differentiation of the arms of the Obermünster Nunnery, a collegiate house of Canonesses. Its arms displayed nine fleur-de-lis. The cross, blazoned as patriarchal cross, is taken from the arms of the Dominican Nunnery of the Holy Cross.
