Fröhnd Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter Gules a chalice with cover Or, at sinister Azure a stag forcene Or.
Meaning:
St.Blasien Monastery gained estates and rights in the village during the 12th and 13th century. It owned the manorial lordship until 1806. The stag is taken from the arms of St. Blasien. The dexter half is a modification of the family arms of Lords of Staufen, who had been reeves since the middle of the 13th century. Their family arms displayed three covered chalices ordered 2:1. The tinctures are those of Baden.
