Ottenbach Coat of Arms

Shield Or, a demi-roebuck forcene Gules, in base a bar wavy Azure.
Meaning:
The buck is alluding to nearby Rehgebirge (=roe mountains). It is also alluding to the Rechberg kin, whose name is derived from Rehberg (= roe mountain). The bar wavy Azure is representing a creek (German: Bach) and thus canting.

Banner and arms were approved on 23 February 1960 by Minister of Interior of Baden-Württemberg, published in GABl 222/1960.
