Shield parted per pale, at dexter Argent a sinister facing lion rampant Gules, at sinister Gules a mitre Argent.
Meaning:
The lion is taken from the family arms of the Rechberg kin, local rulers since the 13th century until 1590. The mitre is taken from the arms of Provosts of Ellwangen, who had been the successors of the Rechberg kin until 1803.
