(de) In Grün über blauem Wasser eine fünftürmige silberne Burg mit offenen Torbögen; die Türme in unterschiedlicher Größe mit schwarzen Fenstern und roten, mit silbernen Dachknöpfen verzierten Spitzdächern; der mittlere Turm - erhöht und stärker als die anderen - mit rotem Sims; im Wasser sieben silberne schräglinks gewandte Fische.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on August 16, 1995, but have been used for many centuries.
The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, known since 1417. The arms show the three water-gates and a city wall. The water is the Zahnabch and the seven fish refer to the former seven fish ponds around the city.
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
