KULMBACH

State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Kulmbach
Additions: 1902 Blaich; 1946 Kauernburg, Mangersreuth, Metzdorf; 1972 Burghaig; 1974 Höferänger; 1976 Katschenreuth, Kirchleus, Leuchau, Lehental, Lösau, Melkendorf, Oberdornlach

Wappen von Kulmbach/Arms (crest) of Kulmbach
Official blazon
German Gespalten; vorne geviert von Silber und Schwarz; hinten in Blau oben ein herschauender, rot bewehrter silberner Löwe, unten ein rot bewehrter silberner Adler.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on June 3, 1922.

Kulmbach most probably was granted city rights in the 13th century. In 1397 it became the main seat of the (Hohen)Zollern family, one of the most powerful dynasties in Germany. The right part of the arms (the quartered field) shows the arms of this family. The left part shows the eagle and lion taken from the arms of the counts of Andechs-Meranien.

The arms as such are known since 1569, with the present colours. In the 17th-19th century the colours often changed, making the quarters blue and white and the lion red on black.
