Riederich Municipal Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The green shield is divided by two golden bendlets. Between the bendlets are three mandrels of the same colour.
Meaning:
Recommended by the Archive Directorate Stuttgart the municipality adopted on 6 November 1924 a simplified version of the arms of the Counts of Achalm. The golden stars were omitted (see also flag of Reutlingen County). The mandrels are symbolizing the local textiles industry.

Banner and coat of arms were approved on 30 August 1974 by minister of interior of Baden-Württemberg, published in GABl 1107/1974.
