Origin/meaning
Until the 19th century the local council used a seal with the local patron saint, St. Andrew, bearing a cross. The above arms were granted on December 15, 1891.
The two crossed keys are a symbol for St. Peter, patron saint of the Berchtesgaden Abbey (the Abbey formed a separate principality until 1803, when it was incorporated into Bayern), the fleur-de-lis are derived from the arms of the Counts of Sulzbach, founders of the Abbey in 1106.
The escutcheon shows the arms of Bayern.
During the Hitler reign, Berchtesgaden was the seat of the summer house of Hitler. Hence the city was privileged and was allowed to add the swastika to the arms, as shown below. In 1945 the old arms were restored.
