Unterwaldhausen Municipal Coat of Arms

Shield Or, issuant from a triplemount Vert a linden branch Vert, shaped like a crozier's head, with five leaves.
Meaning:
The arms are based on a seal of Peter Maigenberg from 1372. They are referring to the historical relationship between the Maigenberg kin, based in Ravensburg, and the local parish. The shape of the branch is also alluding to the Weingarten Abbey, manorial lord in the village since the 13th century. In comparison with the arms of Weingarten Abbey and City as a distinguishing mark the branch was turned to sinister.
