Official blazon
German In Blau eine silberne Burg mit Zinnenmauer und breitbedachtem, mit rotweißen Fähnchen bestecktem Turm; rechts vom Turm ein dreimal rotsilbern schräggeteilter Schild, links ein zugewendeter gesichtiger silberner Halbmond.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms show a city wall with gate flanked by a crescent and a small shield. The small shield probably replaced the sun, as sun and crescent are commonly used on medieval seals and refer to eternity (day and night). The small shield shows the arms of the Lords of Schönburg, to whom the city belonged in the 14th century. The composition with the shield already appeared on the seal of 1576.
