Origin/meaning

Rottweil was already in the 13^th century an important imperial city. The city remained an imperial city until 1802, when it became part of Württemberg. The oldest seal, dating from the early 13^th century, and all later seals show the one-headed imperial eagle. The small cross, probably added to distinguish the arms from similar arms, appeared in the 16^th century. The cross is the symbol of the main church, the Holy Cross church.

After the merger with the 6 other municipalities the arms did not change.

In 1463 Rottweil associated itself with Swiss Confederation and in 1519 became a 'Zugewandter Ort', i.e. a city with a strong connection to the Swiss Confederation, but not being a canton by itself, although 'cantonal arms' with an goat were known, see below.
