Origin/meaning
The oldest known seal dates from 1320 and shows two crossed crosiers, symbol for the Eichstätt Abbey, to which the town belonged at the time. The same composition appears as arms in 1496 as silver crosiers in a red field.
At the meantime the seals of the city used since 1342 a composition with the two crosiers above a bust of a bishop. When the State of Eichstätt was incorporated into Bayern in 1803 the crosiers disappeared and the present arms were adopted in 1819. The colours are the colours of Bayern.
Hupp showed in the 1920s still the old arms, which he considered as the true arms for the city, see below.
