coat of arms

Efforts to adopt a municipal coat of arms of their own were made in 1983, but ultimately failed due to the controversy surrounding the adoption of the beaver from the Bibra family coat of arms into the municipal coat of arms .

Since the municipality of Schwebheim does not have its own coat of arms, the raven (in Franconian: "Krack") has emerged as a symbolic figure. Only three other of the 2056 municipalities in Bavaria ( Elchingen , Prebitz and Stadlern ) do not have their own coat of arms (as of July 2020).

Town twinning

Schwebheim's partner municipality is Poggersdorf in Carinthia .

Sponsorships

In 1985 the sponsorship for the expelled Sudeten Germans from the community of Miltigau in the Marienbad district was taken over.
