State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Ortenaukreis (until 1972 Bühl)
Incorporated into : 1972 Achern
Official blazon
In Rot ein silberner Schwimmfuß.
Origin/meaning
Önsbach was part of the Ortenau district and was a separate village, but has always been part of the district of Achern. In the early 19th century it became a separate municipality until 1972.
The oldest known seal dates from around 1830 and shows a bird's claw n a crowned shield. The meaning or origin of the claw is not known. In 1913 the present arms were devised, based on the old seal. The claw was now specified as a duck's claw and the colours are the old colours of the Ortenau area.
