The arms combine the arms of the county Landsberg (Pales) and the county Meissen (lion). These were used by the Dukes of Sachsen of the Wettin family (see also [[Dresden]]), as they were Counts of both counties. Since the 15<sup>th</sup> century the city has used seals with the two complete arms, in the 18<sup>th</sup> century these were combined in a divided shield as in the above arms.

As a crest the city has used for a long time two buffalo horns with 10 small banners, see image below. Recently the city started to use the crest again.
