Official blazon
In Silber der schwarze lateinische Großbuchstabe O.
Origin/meaning
Owen was founded before 1225 by the Dukes of Teck close to their castle. In the early 14th century the city became a possession of Württemberg. The letter O as the town's initial appeared for the first time in the 15th century seals. As arms the O is known since 1535.
From the late 17th until the early 20th century often a deer antler of Württemberg was placed over the letter O. The present arms were officially adopted in 1931 and are identical to the 16th century arms.
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
