Origin/meaning
The arms show the eagle of Brandenburg, taken from the only known historical seal of the city, dating from 1788. Saarmund returned the city rights in 1862 (to avoid a war tax), which meant that the eagle could no longer be used, as only cities had the right to bear arms at the time. Seals after 1862 thus only showed the name of the village. It is thus not known whether the city actually used the eagle as arms, or only in the seals. Hupp designed the arms in the 1910s based on the seal.
In 1992 the council wanted to adopt arms due to the 775th anniversary of the town. Six proposals were made, all with (parts) of the eagle, but none was finally approved by the council. The municipality thus never had official arms.
In 1994 H. Heese also made a proposal, shown below. It showed the eagle and in chief the Saar and Nuthe rivers and a division line which refers to a former powerful castle in the area. This porposal was never approved.
