Oberschönegg Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale; at dexter Gules, in chief a Marian cypher Argent, in base a fimbriated cross patty of the same; at sinister Argent three mallets Sable ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
The mallets are taken from the family arms of the Lords of Schönegg, whose ancestral seat had been in the village. The lords had been imperial commssionaires and had close relationships to the Bishopric of Augsburg. Two members of the family, Bishop Ulrich II (1331 - 1337) and Bishop Heinrich (1337 - 1348) had been its bishops. As the kin died out in 1355, the lordship was acquired by Bishop Marquard of Randeck (1348 - 1365) in 1355 and remained a dominion of the bishopric until 1802. The tinctures red and white are those of the bishopric. The Marian cypher is taken from the arms of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer (CSsR), shortly Redemptorists and is reminding on one of its famous members Klemens Maria Hofbauer, who lived in Weinried between1805 and 1806. He had been in priest in Warsaw from 1787 and 1808 and tried to spread his congregation all over Switzerland and Southern Germany. The cross is an attribute of St. Ulrich of Augsburg, patron saint of the church of Dietershofen.
