Shield parted per pale; at dexter Sable, a ball Argent; at sinister Argent, a throughout cross Gules; chief Or, charged with an attire Azure.
Meaning:
The attire in chief is alluding to the Landgraviate of Nellenburg, to which both municipalities belonged until 1805. The dexter half displays the arms of the Lords of Raitenau, local rulers in Orsingen, in counterchanged colours. The cross is taken from the arms of Reichenau Abbey.
