===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The arms were designed in 1903 and adopted by the municipality in 1904. | |||
The arms show in the lower half the canting arms of the Lords of Karpfen (karpfe=carp) and in the upper half a deer antler for Württemberg. This should indicate that the village belonged to the Karpfen estate until 1377, when it became a possession of the Counts of Württemberg. These handed it in loan to others, but since 1444 until 1803 it belonged again to Württemberg. | |||
There is, however, no historical proof of the fact that the village belonged to the Lords of Karpfen. Nevertheless, the municipality never changed the arms. | |||
