Wappen von Münstertal/Schwarzwald/Arms (crest) of Münstertal/Schwarzwald
Official blazon
German In Silber ein erniedrigter roter Wappenschild, darin ein silberner Balken, darüber zwischen zwei schräggekreuzten schwarzen Schlägeln und Eisen schwebend eine rote Mitra mit roten Zierbändern.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 3, 1972. The arms were created after the merger of Ober- and Untermünstertal.

The small shield shows the arms of Austria, as the area historically belonged to Austria until 1813. The mitre is the symbol of the St. Trudpert Abbey, which had extensive possessions in the valley. The tools symbolise the silver mining in the valley from the 10th century until 1865.

The Austrian shield already appeared on the second seal of the city of Münster, dating from 1417. The older seal only showed a church with a chalice. The church probably symbolised the St. Trudpert Abbey, the chalice was taken from the arms of the Lords of Staufen, who ruled the city from 1277-1602 as vassals for the Dukes of Austria. The city was destroyed in the late 14th century and lost its importance. Presently it is the village of Rotte Münster.
