History
=Coat-of-arms=
The emblem represents a sable plough on or square, with the sides curved and the corners decorated with shamrock on azure. The plough symbolizes the reclamation of the fields and their processing; the four vertices represent the four original German-speaking municipalities of Non Valley: Laurein, Proveis, Unsere Liebe Frau im Walde and St. Felix. The emblem was adopted in 1967.[http://www.ngw.nl/int/ita/l/laurein.htm Heraldry of the World: Laurein]
