Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 15, 1984.

Dimbach belonged until 1793 to the Lindelbronn Estate, which was owned by the Counts von Leiningen-Hardenburg-Dagsburg. The linden tree in the upper half is a canting element for the Estate. The lower half with the escarbuncle is taken from the arms of the counts.

Literature : Debus, 1988
