Heimsheim received city rights in the late 13<sup>th</sup> century, which were confirmed in 1456. Probably at the same time the arms were devised and placed on the local seal. The wheat-ears are a canting symbol (for Heimsen) and have been used ever since as the arms of the city. | Heimsheim received city rights in the late 13<sup>th</sup> century, which were confirmed in 1456.
