The arms are taken from the Senft kin. Most of its members emigrated from Untermünkheim to Hall in the early Middle Ages. The kin died out in Untermünkheim in 1507 after the death of Ulrich von Münkheim In 1515 Melchior Senft came back from Hall and built a manor in Untermünkheim, called the little Senft castle (Swabian: Schlössle).
