Origin/meaning
The municipality of Kappelwindeck used a seal since 1762 with two triangles, the old village sign. In 1819 a new seal was made, which showed the bend of Baden and the letter K as the initial of the municipality (see picture below).
In 1900 the State Archives proposed the old seal with the village sign as arms. The local council approved these arms, which were used until 1934.
Literature: Zier, 1964; image of arms provided by Christian Lang (Germany)
