Reichertsheim Coat of Arms

Shield Or, on a chevron Sable three trefoils Argent, in base Azure two mullets of six points Or.
Meaning:
The chevron with trefoils displays the family arms of the local Reichertsheim kin, who had been judges in service of the Dukes of Bayern in the Late Medieval. The two stars are attributes of St. Mary, as St. Mary of the Ascension being patron saint of the local aprish church and of the Augustine Ramsau Abbey, a well known pilgrimage church in a part of Reichertsheim.
