Shield parted per pale, at dexter Or a bend Gules, at sinister Vert a fir Argent in a fence of the same.
Meaning:
The arms are based on the 2nd local seal from 1571, the fence was added later in 1661. The first arms from 1899 displayed a fir proper in a silver field, the current tinctures were introduced in 1961. The bend is alluding to the Margraves of Baden, local rulers since 1507.
