Wappen von Ellenberg (Ostalbkreis)

Official blazon

(de) In Gold ein aus dem Schildrand wachsender, nach links gewendeter schwarzer Elchkopf.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1924.

The arms show a canting moose (Elch), as the name was supposedly derived from Elchenberg. As no historical arms or seals were known the moose was chosen by the State Archives as a proper symbol, even though there have never been moose in the area.
