Attenweiler Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter Or a throughout cross patty Gules, at sinister Azure a beaver rampant Or.
Meaning:
The so called "cross of Adelind" is referring to the Buchau Church Collegiate, having the rights of a reeve in Oggelsbeuren and Rupertshofen since 1695. The beaver is alluding to the former Imperial City of Biberach. Its Hospital of the Holy Spirit acquired the biggest part of Attenweiler between 1347 and 1531.
