Official blazon

Unter goldenem Schildhaupt, darin eine schwarze Hirschstange, von Schwarz und Gold gerautet.

Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted in 1912 and are slightly different than the original proposal of the State Archives, which showed a divided shield, not a chief. The chief shows the deer antler for Württemberg, the lower half the arms of the Dukes of Teck, the oldest known rulers of the area.
