Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 3, 1976.

The arms are canting, the name means 'City of wine' and thus show a bunch of grapes. The chief shows a deer antler, the symbol of Württemberg, which was part of the arms of three of the former municipalities. The colours are those of Württemberg.
