Origin/meaning
Dornstetten received city rights in 1270 from Count Heinrich II von Urach-Fürstenberg. The oldest seal dates from the same time and shows the arms of the counts.
Around 1320 the city became a possession of the Counts of Württemberg, and the seals showed the three deer antlers of Württemberg. The shield was surrounded by canting thorn branches (Dorn=thorn). The two elements were combined in the 16th century, showing a single antler above a thorn bush. All later seals and images show the same combination, even though the actual shape and size of the bush differs widely.
