State : Baden-Württemberg

German | In Gold ein aus dem Schildrand wachsender, nach links gewendeter schwarzer Elchkopf. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1924.
The arms show a canting moose (Elch), as the name was supposedly derived from Elchenberg. As no historical arms or seals were known the moose was chosen by the State Archives as a proper symbol, even though there have never been moose in the area.
The arms shown in an album from 1952 |
