Origin/meaning
The arms were designed and adopted in 1898.
In 1895 the local council applied for the use of arms, mentioning that there were no historical seals or arms known. The State Archives of Baden designed the above arms which are composed of the banner of the State of Würzburg and the roses of the Wertheim County. Ebenheid belonged to Wertheim until 1612 and from 1612-1803 to Würzburg. In 1803 it became part of Baden.
