Aislingen Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter on top of a base Vert a chapel Argent with domed roof and lantern, at sinister Argent a gonfanon Gules with fringes and three annulets Or.
Meaning:
The dexter side displays the local chapel built in Baroque style, a local landmark. The gonfanon is the heraldic symbol of the Counts of Werdenberg, who had been manorial lords in Aislingen between 1280 and 1489. The counts also granted the rights of a market town in the 14th century. The tinctures red and white are those of the Bishopric of Augsburg.
