Luhe-Wildenau Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale; at dexter Or a demi-eagle Sable, armed and tongued Gules, couped per pale,; at sinister Argent an attire Gules in pale with three hunting horns Or with laces Vert, hanging on the tips of the attire.
Meaning:
The existence of the arms is proven by a seal from 1403. The rights of a market town had been confirmed shortly before, in 1392. Luhe had however already been a market town before 1280. The pattern also could be found on seals until the late 17th century and on the belfry of the local church as an architectural sculpture. The demi-eagle is a differentiation of the imperial eagle, as Luhe had been part of a royal estate since the beginning of the 10th century. The sinister half probably was alluding to the Luher Forst, a forest and hunting ground, where Luhe had rights of use since 1331. Nowadays it is representing the former Wildenau district (Bavarian: Hofmark) and the municipalities of Luhe, Oberwildenau and Neudorf near Luhe, which merged in 1978.
