The former municipal coat of arms shows in gold (yellow) a rooted green beech, covered with a lowered blue wave beam. The tree symbolizes the Schönbuch, the blue wave beam the Ammer. The six aspiring branches and six indigenous roots of beech represent the six villages that form village Ammerbuch today.
