Origin/meaning

The arms are derived from the seals of the city from the middle of the 14^th century until the 18^th century. The arms show the bishop of Würzburg in the gate of the city. Fladungen got city rights from the bishops of Würzburg. The colours of the arms are known since 1544 and have never been changed.
