Origin/meaning

Böblingen received city rights in the middle of the 13^th century. The oldest known seals of the city date from around 1300 and shows already the banner (Gonfanon) of the Counts of Tübingen, who at the time owned the city. The arms remained the same throughout the centuries, even though the city became part of Württemberg in 1357.

The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925
