German	In Silber auf goldenem Steinsockel kniend ein barhäuptiger, rot gekleideter Mann, der mit der Linken einen abwärts gerichteten goldenen Stab, mit der Rechten einen goldenen Schild hält; darin ein mit einer silbernen Schrägleiste überdeckter, rot bewehrter schwarzer Löwe.
English	blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms are based on the oldest known seal of the town, dating from the early 14^th century. The figure is most likely Botho von Kärnten, Counts of the Palatinate and builder of the local castle in 1084. In 1108 the castle was acquired by the Bishops of Bamberg, who ruled the town until 1803. The small shield shows the lion of the State of Bamberg.

In the 19^th century the knight was shown as a well-dressed civilian, but the old composition was restored in 1836.
