Gäufelden Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided per pale into silver (= white) and red. The dexter side displays a blacl crozier, the sinister side a silver (= white) chalice.
Meaning:
On 1 July 1971 the municipalities of Öschelbronn, Nebringen and Tailfingen merged. The chalice is taken from the former arms of Tailfingen. The crozier is taken from the former arms of Öschelbronn, which was partially owned by Bebenhausen Monastery. The same symbol appeared also on border stones of Nebringen, which belonged to Hirsau Monastery, since 1683.

Banner and coat of arms were approved on 24 August 1973 by minister of interior of Baden Württemberg, published in GABl 1105/1974.
