The arms were officially granted on June 18, 1965, but are based on much older images.  


The oldest known seals of Spalt date from 1337-1669 and show already a church. The church is most likely the local St. Emmeram church. In the first half of the 16<sup>th</sup> century a wolf appears next to the tree in front of the church. The wolf is derived from a local story in which a wolf was caught in a crack (Spalt) of a tree near the city. This image was used on seals and as arms until the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, when the wolf was again removed. The colours were never formally described until 1965 and many differently coloured images exist.
