Shield parted per fess, above Or three bendlets sinister Gules, between them three 6-point stars Gules, on either flank another two 6-point stars Gules, all ordered per bend sinister, beneath Gules a stag statant Or.
Meaning:
Above the upper half displays in the colours of Sigmaringen the arms of the Benedictine Abbey of Zwiefalten, founded in 1098 and secularised in 1802, which owned large estates in the area. The lower half displays the stag from the arms of the Counts of Sigmaringen.
