The arms are derived from the old banner of the city, and is used on seals since 1394. The colours are known since 1443. The shield itself thus has not changed since. | The arms are derived from the old banner of the city, and is used on seals since 1394. The colours are known since 1443.

A large number of seals are known for the city. The oldest seals of the city showed the local patron saint, St. Ursus. He initially holds a shield with a cross, but from the 15th century onwards he is gradually replaced by the arms of the city. Several seals were used at the same time period. | |||
Until the early 18<sup>th</sup> century the arms were often shown besides the Imperial eagle, as the area was part of the Holy Roman Empire. In the late 18<sup>th</sup> century the power of the empire became less and less and the eagle was replaced by the ducal crown. The lions were added around the same time. | Until the early 18<sup>th</sup> century the arms were often shown besides the Imperial eagle, as the area was part of the Holy Roman Empire.
