Scheuring Coat of Arms

Shield parted per bend sinister nebuly of Vert and Or, a Latin cross patty in counterchanged tinctures in both fields.
Meaning:
The arms are based on the family arms of the Scheuring kin, who owned estates also in Eresing and Castell. The shield of their arms was parted by a bend sinister nebuly and is known from seals. The family is known since 1130 and probably died out in 1507. The crosses are representing both churches of Scheuring, dedicated to St. Martin and St. John, which had been subordinated to Schäftlarn Monastery.
