Ritschweier was a separate village belonging to the Counts of Erbach for many centuries. From 1812-1837 it was part of the municipality of [[Rippenweier]]. <br/> | Ritschweier was a separate village belonging to the Counts of Erbach for many centuries.

The village had already in the 17<sup>th</sup> century a separate village-seal. It showed the letter R, the initial of the village and was made in 1673. The same letter appears in the new seal from 1837. The letter was placed in a shield, and colours were added in 1910, when the arms were officially granted. The colours are derived from the colours of the arms of the Wittelsbach family, Counts of the Pfalz (see [[Bayern]]). | The village had already in the 17<sup>th</sup> century a separate village-seal.

The arms remained unchanged until 1972. The seal of the village, however, showed between 1945 and 1960 a completely different shield. The shield was divided and showed in the upper half three wheat-ears and in the lower divided half, left two apples and right a plough. These were clearly agricultural symbols. The arms were never used anywhere else and no colours are known. | The arms remained unchanged until 1972.
