Seitingen-Oberflacht Municipal Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter Argent parted by a cross Gules, at sinister Azure a lyre Or.
Meaning:
The dexter half displays the arms of the Bishopric of Konstanz. Before it had been the dexter half of the municipal arms of the former Seitingen Municipality, but in counterchanged colours. Both former municipalities belonged to Konstanz since around 1300. The lyre was found during excavations in Oberflacht as a burial object. The sinister half before had been the municipal arms of former Oberflacht Municipality. Seitingen and Oberflacht merged on 1 January 1975.
