Gules a fess Argent.
Christopher Southworth

The emblem was taken over by the Lords of Bichelsee and has nothing to do with the Austrian shield.
After the merger of Bichelsee and Balterswil on 1 January 1996, the new commune adopted the old emblem of Bichelsee.

Azure a bar Argent between three annulets of the Same.

The shield with the bar is reminiscent of the Lords of Bichelsee, the rings of the Landenbergers and the colours of the monastery Fischingen.
