Origin/meaning

Donauwörth was an imperial city in the early 13th century. The oldest seal, dating from around 1240, thus shows the imperial eagle flanked by a cross and a star. Until 1529 the seals showed the eagle flanked by two star-shaped flowers.
The present arms were granted by Emperor Charles V on October 21, 1530. The eagle is again the imperial eagle, the letter W the initial of Wörth. The arms have not changed since, except from 1818-1836, when the city was ordered to replace the eagle with the lion of Bayern.
