As no old seals or arms were known for Birenbach, the above arms were devised in 1958. The lion is taken from the arms of the Staufen family, and symbolises the former Estate of Büren-Hohensatufen to which the village belonged. The blue bar is canting (Bach=brook) for the last part of the name. | As no old seals or arms were known for Birenbach, the above arms were devised in 1958.
