Shield Argent, above a 6-spokes wheel Gules, beneath a trefoil Vert.
Meaning:
The trefoil (German: Kleeblatt) is a canting element and had been a common local symbol of Alt-Cleebronn and Neu-Cleebronn since the 17th century. The wheel of the Archbishopric of Mainz appeared in the local seal of Neu-Cleebronn, which had been a dominion of the archbishops, since 1695. Both municipalities merged in 1843 and kept the arms of Neu-Cleebronn as common arms. The current tinctures were fixed in 1919. The wheel of mainz since then is displayed in counterchanged colours.
