Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on October 30, 1989.

The arms are partly canting - the nettles allude to the name of the municipality. The partition wavy illustrates the brook which waters the Ilztal. The five ploughshares hint at the five municipalities that merged into Nestelbach in Ilztal as well as at the long tradition of agriculture in this region.
