Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on May 1, 1928.
The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, which is known from 1306. The seal may be made before the granting of the city rights in 1300. The small arms are the arms of the Counts of Falkenstein-Münzenberg who built a large house in 1160. It is likely that this building is the building on the seal. In a later seal, dating from 1540, the small arms are quartered with the arms of the Counts of Solms, the rulers at the time. The arms were officially granted in 1928 when the old smaller shield was restored.
Besides these arms there is a seal from around 1800 that shows a different composition. The seal shows two shields, one with the house, the other with a mitre.
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
