The arms are made up from arms on a stonewall in the Hospital of Esslingen, to which the village belonged. The arms first appear in the early 20<sup>th</sup> century on the seals of the village, with St. Catherine as a supporter. St. Catherine is the patron saint of the hospital. The first quarter of the arms is likely taken from the arms of [[Tübingen]], as the villages Möhringen and Vaihingen were possessions of the Counts of Tübingen. They sold the villages in the 13<sup>th</sup> century to the hospital. The head in the second quarter is added as a canting symbol (Möhrin=female Moor). The origin of the balls in the third quarter is not known. They appear in many arms of the hospital. The fourth quarter also shows a broken wheel, one of the symbols of St. Catherine. | The arms are made up from arms on a stonewall in the Hospital of Esslingen, to which the village belonged.
