Although a local council is known since 1385, there was no seal of the village until the 18<sup>th</sup> century. The oldest seal is known since 1973 and shows a shield with a claw of a swimming bird. The claw was placed to the other direction as is the present arms. Even though the shield with the claw was used in all the seal, it was not until 1960 that the municipality decided to apply for proper arms. As no historical colours were known, the arms were granted in the colours of <a href=wurtembe|Württemberg]].<br/> | Although a local council is known since 1385, there was no seal of the village until the 18<sup>th</sup> century.

The origin of the claw is probably that it is taken from the seals of <a href=o/oberderd|Oberderdingen]]. The village was ruled together with Oberderdingen by the monastery of Herrenalb.
