Wappen von Berkheim (Biberach)/Arms (crest) of Berkheim (Biberach)

German

In Rot ein goldener Pilgerhut mit umlaufender goldener Kordel, vorne zweifach verknotet und in zwei Quasten endend, oben begleitet von zwei goldenen Muscheln.

English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 18, 1957.

The hat and the two shells are the symbols of the local patron saint, St. Willebold. He came to Berkheim als a pilgrim in 1230 and is buried in the local church. The colours are derived from the arms of the Counts of Calw, as the saint belonged to the family of the counts.
