Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1574 by Emperor Maximilian II. The town was a possession of the Imperial Marshall Wolf von Pappenheim. The upper part is derived from the arms of the Pappenheim family. The lower part is a canting element for the Ber (from Bär, bear) part of the name. The arms have not changed since.
