The municipality Hülben includes the village Hülben and a group of houses.[2]
Hülben was probably founded in the time of the Alemannic conquest between 700 and 800. The village name is a dwelling place name by the two Hülben , where at that time had settled the first settlers. 1137 Hülben is first mentioned in the Zwiefalter chronicles. 1265 came Hülben as part of the House of Urach to Württemberg, and became Protestant 1534 after the Battle of Lauffen.
Only in 1866 Hülben had his own parish.
Nationally the community became known by the derived from Michael Cullin (* 1540) family of teachers named Kullen. From 1722 to 1966 (until 1939 without interruption) members of the family Kullen worked in the school service of Hülben. From the family Kullen came also the old pietism community, which holds the "fair Monday hour" till today.
The population figures are census results (1) or official updates of the State Statistical Office (only principal residences).

"In blue over a silver Wellenschildfuß a golden ammonite."
The old coat of arms was awarded on 26 April 1951 by Ministry of the Interior Württemberg-Hohenzollern.
"In silver over a black Wellenschildfuß a black bar."
After a council resolution of 12 March 1948, the emblem of the already then no longer predominantly agricultural municipality should include other figures. The Wellenschildfuß refers to the municipality of origin, which is derived from "hülwe" = pool or lake. The bar is reminiscent of the Knights of Dettingen who had possessions in Hülben. The family of Cudi miles de Tettingen led this crest figure.[3]
The Hülben stalactite cave was discovered during the construction of national road Bad Urach-Hülben on September 19, 1978, it is a stalactite cave with stalactites and stalagmites. An about 5 m deep shaft leads into the easily accessible part of the cave. This has about room size, but with only partial low altitude.[4]
