Ostfildern Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is quarterly divided into silver (= white) and red. The whole is superimposed by a mill wheel. Its quarters in the silver fields are green, those ones in the red fields are golden (= yellow).
Meaning:
The quarterly divided shield is taken from the arms of the former municipality of Nellingen. The millwheel is symbolizing the watermills in the Körsch valley. Its colours are representing the other parts of Ostfildern. On 1 January 1975 Nellingen auf den Fildern, Ruit auf den Fildern, Kemnat and Scharnhausen merged. On 1 January 1976 Ostfildern gained the rights of a city.

Nellingen Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is quarterly divided into silver (= white) and red.
Meaning:
The former municipality displayed the arms of the Lords of Nellingen, who died out in 1551. Their "civil" branch played an important role in the Imperial City of Esslingen. Anselm of Nellingen in 1250 donated a church near his castle to the Monastery of St. Blasien, whose administrators (Vögte) had been the Counts of Württemberg. The first municipal arms from 1926 already contained the shield of the Nellingen kin, however in reversed order of colours. A correction was made in 1952. Nellingen was incorporated into Ostfildern on 1 January 1975.
Source: Stadler 1971, p.76

The banner was approved on 16 February 1967 by minister of interior of Baden-Württemberg, published in GABl 214/1967.
