Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on April 23, 1952.
The oldest seal of the village is known since 1717. It is not known when it was adopted, but at least in 1656 the village council did not have its own seal. The seal showed already a shield with a bar and a grape vine (see below). The same composition appears on the second (known from 1759) seal of the council.
A third seal dates from the late 18th or early 19th century and was used until 1826. This seal shows a divided shield with in the upper half a grape vine with a bird. The lower half is vertically divided and shows in the dexter part again a vine and in the sinister a chief above two fish.
The grape vines clearly indicate the importance of viticulture for the village. The fish in the third seal may refer to fishing or are a canting symbol for the Heppach river.
In the late 19th century until 1939 the village council used a seal with either the arms of the [{State of Baden]] or just the name of the village. In 1939 a new seal based on the third seal was again used, but the composition was never used as a coloured coat of arms.
In 1951 the council adopted the above arms based on the oldest seal in arbitrarily chosen colours. The arms and flag where then officially granted a year later.
