Meaning:
Dangstetten, Kadelburg, Küßnach, Reckingen and Rheinheim merged on 1 January 1973. Bechtersbohl was incorporated in 1975. The name of the new municipality was taken from Küssaberg Castle, seat of a namesake lordship. Nearly all villages of the current municipality belonged to that lordship. The fess wavy is symbolising the Rhine.
