Shield quartered of Azure and Argent, over all a lozenge Argent in bend sinister.
Meaning:
The current arms were displayed in local seal until 1925, and had then been replaced by the family arms of the Barons of Schwendi (Azure a fess Or, accompanied in base and chief by lozenges Argent). The former arms were restored in 1965.

The current arms had been granted first on 24 October 1659 by Baron Franz of Schwendi to the local courtyard. Banner and arms were approved on 12 July 1965 by Minister of Interior of Baden-Württemberg, published in GABl 486/1965.
