Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 31, 1998, but have been in use since 1951.

The arms show seven people from Schwaben, making it a canting symbol. The name supposedly was derived from the Field of the people from Schwaben (Schwab(en)feld).

The seven people are derived from The Seven Swabians (Die Sieben Schwaben) a popular German fairy tale, collected by The Brothers Grimm in the second volume edition of their Kinder- und Hausmärchen (1857). Once upon a time there were Seven Swabians who travelled through the world. To be safe from danger they carried one long spear with them. They have a number of adventures and finally all drown in the river near Trier.
