When the village needed a new seal in 1900, the government of Baden proposed a blue wavy fess on a silver shield, accompanied from two black mill wheels. This was to represent the many water mills in the area since the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The municipality however, wanted the old symbol. In 1902 the arms were granted in the colours of [[Baden (State)|Baden]], to which the village belonged since 1444. Why the crescent was turned 90 degrees is not known. In the 1950s the Archives of Baden-Württemberg again proposed the arms of 1900, but the municipality did not want to change its arms.
