Description of coat of arms:
In a blue shield is a golden (= yellow) sparrowhawk, flying to the top. The shield has a base, chequered into black and silver (= white).
Meaning:
The sparrowhawk, a typical, local species is symbolizing the location on the high plateau of the Swabian Alb. The chequered base is taken from the arms of the local Sperberseck kin.

Banner and coat of arms were approved on 24 August 1977 by the county administration, published in GABl 295/1978.
