Durchhausen Municipal Coat of Arms

Shield Argent, on top of a base issuant Vert a house Gules with thoroughfares Argent.
Meaning:
Before 1930 the municipality used stamps displaying the arms of the People's State of Württemberg, which had been exactly the same as the arms of Württemberg-Hohenzollern between 1945 and 1952. The current pattern was adopted in 1930 but had obviously been in use earlier, as it was called then "the old coat of arms". The house is canting (thoroughgate in German is Durchfahrt). The tinctures were fixed in 1961.
