Tunau Coat of Arms

Shield Azure three plough shares Or ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
The village historically belonged to Schöönau Bailiwick as a part of St.Blasien Monastery. It became a dominion of Baden in 1806, a municipality in 1809 and had its first seal in 1811, just displaying an inscription. The plough shares are alluding to the rural character of the municipality.

The arms were adopted in 1903. The banner was never approved officially.
