Schopfloch Coat of Arms

Shield Gules, a cross patty Or, each arm charged with three points Sable, chief Or charged with an attire Sable.
Meaning:
The cross is a burial object of the grave of a Christian Alemanni noblewoman from the 7th century. It had been found east of the St. Michael's Church in Oberiflingen. Many Alemanni kins had the tinctures red and yellow. The attire is alluding to the fact that all parts of the municipality belonged to Württemberg since the 17th century.
