DEU Altendorf Landkreis Schwandorf Coat of Arms - Design Overview

This sticker showcases the official coat of arms (Wappen) of Altendorf, a municipality within the Schwandorf district of Bavaria, Germany. The design is a vibrant representation of the town's historical roots and noble heritage.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The coat of arms is divided horizontally, presenting two distinct sections, each rich in meaning:

Upper Half: Stripes of Legacy

The upper portion features a pattern known as "barry of four." This design comprises four horizontal stripes that alternate between black (sable) and gold (or). These stripes are a direct reference to the Freiherrn von Schellenberg, a noble family who held influence in the Altendorf area during the 17th and 18th centuries.

Lower Half: A Tapestry of History

The lower half presents a vivid red (gules) field, providing a dramatic backdrop for the key symbolic elements.

  • Hunting Horn: A silver (argent) hunting horn is displayed horizontally across the field. This emblem directly honors the Freiherrn Horneck von Hornberg, another noble family with close ties to Altendorf's history and former owners of the local manor.
  • Quadruple Mount: Rising from the base of the shield is a stylized group of four gold (or) hills, known as a quadruple mount. This element draws from the arms of the Counts of Leonberg, who held estates and were connected to the Counts of Altendorf.

Together, these carefully selected elements create a visually compelling emblem that serves as a lasting tribute to Altendorf's rich historical tapestry.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
