The clawless eagle was the arms of the Counts of Lauffen, who ruled the area until the beginning of the 13<sup>th</sup> century. As the city of [[Heilbronn]] also uses an eagle, it was chosen as a representative symbol.


'''Origin/meaning :'''<br/>
The arms replaced arms used by the district since 1928. These arms showed a wheat-ear, hammer and some grapes around an escutcheon with an anchor. These arms represented the different industries in the district, agriculture, mining, viticulture and the harbour at the Neckar.
