Object history
Deutsch: Das Wappen des Landkreises Weilheim-Schongau wurde am 21. Mai 1974 vor der Regierung Oberbayern genehmigt. Der Löwe entstammt dem Wappen der Hohenstaufen und ist zugleich Wappenzeichen der welfischen Herzöge. Er symbolisiert das Schongauer Gebiet. Der Abtstab steht für die früheren Klöster Wessobrunn, Polling, Habach, Bernried, Rottenbuch und Steingaden. Die Bergmannswerkzeuge erinnern an den Pechkohlebergbau in Penzberg und Peißenberg.
English: The arms were granted on May 21, 1974. The chief shows the lion of the Hohenstaufen dynasty, Dukes of Swabia, former rulers of the area until 1269. The crozier symbolises the many monasteries in the district and the minor tools stand for pitch coal mining in Penzberg and Peißenberg.
