Eigeltingen Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale; at dexter Or a demi-eagle Sable, armed and tongued Gules, holding an attire Azure in bend by his claw; at sinister Azure a fleur-de-lis Argent.
Meaning:
All parts of the nowadays municipality except Honstetten belonged historically to the Landgraviate of Neuenbürg until 1806, while Honstetten belonged to Fürstenberg. The current arms are based on the municipal arms of Eigeltingen from 1897, which was based upon a seal from 1371 of Claus von Aigeltingen, who was a citizen of Aach. The blue attire from the Landgraviate of Neuenbürg was added in 1978.
