Metzingen Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
In a silver (= white) shield is a green, rooted cabbage. The shield has a golden (= yellow) chief superimposed by a black attire.
Meaning:
The cabbage in the arms, a very rare charge in German heraldry, already appeared as a village sign in the 16th century. The cabbage is symbolizing the importance of cultivating vegetables in the area for many centuries. The attire is symbolizing the Dukes of Württemberg, the former rulers.
Source: Stadler 1971, p.71

The arms were most likely officially granted in the early 17th century by the Dukes of Württemberg.

Neuhausen Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
In a silver (= white) shield is a green grapevine with green leaves and blue bunches of grapes, all fixed by a red pole.
Meaning:
The grape vines already appeared on the oldest known seal of the village, dating from 1528. They are symbolizing the importance of viticulture in the area. Neuhausen belonged to the Benedictine Abbey of Zwiefalten since the 11th century. The abbey had an administrator (Vogt) being in service of the Dukes of Württemberg. Since 1749 the abbey was under direct imperial rule.
