SCHWAIGERN
State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Heilbronn
Additions : 1971 Massenbach, Niederhofen, Stetten am Heuchelberg
Official blazon
In Rot drei (2:1) silberne Ringe. Schildhalter: über dem Schild wachsend der hl. Johannes d. T. mit Nimbus und umgehängtem Fell, die Rechte erhoben, mit der Linken ein liegendes Gotteslamm und einen in ein Kreuz auslaufenden Stab haltend, daran eine dreilatzige Fahne.
Origin/meaning
The three rings in the arms are derived from the arms of the Lords of Neipperg, who ruled the city for a long time. The rings already appear on the oldest known seal of the city, known since the late 15th century. The supporter is St. John Baptist, the local patron saint. All later seals show the same composition, but the supporter is not always used.
 The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
