Origin/meaning

The oldest seals of Sinzheim date from the 15th century and show a divided shield, with in the upper part a cross, and in the lower a grape cutting knife all placed in a large circle. In the end of the 17th century the circle disappears and the arms show the cross in the upper and the knife in the lower half.

Seals of Sinzheim from 1546 and 1669

The village sign of Sinzheim, as seen on border stones since the 18th century, show a circle, from which a hook rises. This symbol is also used in the arms on the seals from the late 18th century. In the middle of the 19th century the old divided shield was again used, to be, again, replaced by the village sign at the end of the century.

In 1903 the municipality wanted to approve its arms, and the State Archives proposed the old arms, with the circle. The council, however, wanted to add the old castle Tiefenau to the arms. Finally the present arms were adopted with the cross and the old sign on each side of the castle. The State Archives did not approve of these arms and after some dispute, the municipality again adopted the arms on March 24, 1964.
