State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Göppingen
Incorporated into : 1974 Lauterstein
Official blazon
In Gold ein aus dem Schildrand emporkommender, obeliskenförmiger silberner Stein, den zwei zugewendete rote Löwen halten.
Origin/meaning
Weissenstein was already mentioned as a city in the 14th century, but no seals or arms are known until the early 19th century. The oldest seal dates from 1835 and already shows the same arms as above. The lions are derived from the arms of the Lords of Rechberg, Lords of Weissenstein in the 14th century. The monument is canting, Weissenstein means white-stone.
