Origin/meaning

The arms show the old village sign of Ulm, which is first mentioned in a document from 1762. The oldest seal of Ulm dates from the early 19^th century and shows the symbol without a shield. A later 19^th century seal shows the symbol in a crowned shield. The present arms and colours were officially approved in July 1900.
