Shield Gules, two impending embattled bars Argent ordered per pale with four embattlements each, chief quartered of Argent and Sable.
Meaning:
The bars are taken from the arms of the Lords of Burk, known since the 13th century. The colours red and white are those of the Bishopric of Eichstätt, to which the parish historically belonged. The chief displays the arms of the Margraves of Brandenburg-Ansbach.
