Origin/meaning

Möckmühl became a city in the late 13^th century, but did not seem to use a seal until the second half of the 15^th century, when the city became part of the Pfalz. The seal showed only the claw, which origin is unknown. In the second part of the 16^th century the mountain and the canting mill-wheel (mill=Mühle) were added. Since 1645 these were the only arms used, both on the seals as on arms proper.
