Schöneich's Coat of Arms "Wappen des Caspar von Schöneich"
HISTORICAL FORMATION OF THE COAT OF ARMS
The shield shows a green braided oak wreath on a gold background, filled alternately with oak leaves and eight gold acorns and framed by a red border with four loops. The crown is repeated on the helmet with red and gold lambrequins.
SHIELD ENLARGEMENT I
The coat of arms of the Müller family of Schönaich ennobled in 1861, which comes from Ida of Schönaich, is similar to the original coat of arms of the Schönaichs: under the red chief is a gold lion with a red tongue walking, all on a golden background with a green oak crown (the Schönaich one). The helmet bears the same crown as the shield with red and gold lambrequins.
SHIELD ENLARGEMENT II
The coat of arms of Baron de Hoverbeck, called de Schoenaich, shows in the title of the year 1802 a cleft shield; the right half is divided into four parts: in the first and fourth fields there is a black rafter on a silver background, in the second and third fields, a silver sash on a black background, accompanied at the top by three silver merlets grouped together (original Hoverbeck coat of arms); the left half shows at the top, on a golden background, the oak crown of The Schoenaich; below, on a red background, a golden and crowned lion advancing with a sword in its right front claw (from the enlarged coat of arms of The Schoenaich). The shield is covered by three helmets; from the crown of the first helmet with two black and silver lambrequins are born two torsos of bear or golden houndling that move away; the crown of the central helmet with green and gold lambrequins carries the oak crown of The Schönaich; from the crown of the third helmet with red and gold lambrequins emerges an arm with a sword, bent and clad in black.
