Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter Argent a lance Gules and a reversed sword Gules in saltire, at sinister Azure an eradicated linden Argent, base wavy in counterchanged tinctures.
Meaning:
The base wavy is a representation of the Rott River, one of the name givers of the county. Lance and sword are the attributes of St. Emmeram and St. Barbara. The former is patron saint of the local parish church, the latter of the chapel of the castle of Unterhausbach. The canting linden is representing the namesake former municipality and also referring to the many lindens in the municipality. The tinctures blue and white are referring to the Wittelsbach kin, the most important local manorial lord.
