Dielheim Coat of Arms

Shield Azure, a throughout facetted cross Argent, in centre surmounted by an inescutcheon Argent, charged with a black initial "D". Each quarter of the shield is charged with a 6-point star Argent.
Meaning:
The village had been a dominion of the Bishopric of Speyer from 1512 to 1803, when it became a dominion of Margraviate of Baden. Dielheim had proper court seals at least since 1788, displaying only the initial. The cross is taken from the arms of the Bishopric of Speyer, the stars from the arms of the former municipality of Horrenberg, which had been incorporated on 1 March 1972.
