Pullenreuth Coat of Arms

Shield Gules, above a yoke Argent, beneath a drinking vessel Or.
Meaning:
The yoke is taken from the arms of the Lords of Mengersreuth, who acquired the district around the hammer mill of Riglasreuth in 1407 and kept it until 1607, since 1583 without hammer mill. The vessel is taken from the arms of the Lords of Pullenreuth. They were first mentioned in 1244 on occasion of the Leuchtenberg donation to the Cistercian Waldsassen Monastery.
