MÜNSTER
State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Stuttgart
Incorporated into : 1931 Stuttgart
Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of Münster dates from 1611 and is thereby one of the oldest village seals in the area. It showed the letter M.
When the village required a new seal and arms in 1905 the State Archives proposed to add a crosier, and determine the colours as either silver on red or gold on blue. The stick is a symbol tot the Lorch Abbey, to which the village belonged from the 12th century onwards. The village decided upon the above colours.
