Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted in 1965 but are much older.

The city was owned by the Lords of Üsenberg (see also Kenzingen and Herbolzheim), who granted the city rights in 1290. The first seal, dating from the early 14th century, shows as arms the wing of Üsenberg combined with a knife, probably an old village sign.

In the Middle Ages, when the Üsenberg family became extinct the city became owned by Austria. Nevertheless, all seals until 1720 showed only the wing of the Üsenbergs, not the Austrian arms. The combination of Üsenberg and Austria, as in the present arms, did not appear until the middle of the 18th century. The transfer to Baden in 1806 did not change the arms.
