Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
WOLFRATSHAUSEN
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen (until 1973 Wolfratshausen)
Official blazon
In Silber ein rot bewehrter schwarzer Wolf.
Origin/meaning
The arms are canting, they show a wolf. The wolf already appeared on the first known seal of the city, known since 1403, but probably dating from the middle of the 15th century. In the course of the centuries the animal gradually changed into a fox. The official chain of the mayor from 1819 undoubtedly showed a fox. In 1961 the present arms were granted, with a wolf, not a fox.
