The municipality asked in 1900 for a new seal and the State archives proposed the arms of the Lords of Achern, showing a fish-hook.

Origin/meaning

Oberachern 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 1971.

The municipality asked in 1900 for a new seal and the State archives proposed the arms of the Lords of Achern, showing a fish-hook. The council did not approve this proposal, and proposed the arms of the Freischbach family instead. This family has lived in the local castle from 1595-1606 and the arms can be seen on several gravestones. The municipality adopted the new arms on June 20, 1900.
