Origin/meaning
Friedberg was already a city in the 12th or early 13th century. In the oldest seal, which dates from 1220 the imperial eagle is shown, standing on a canting mountain (Berg). The eagle became double-headed in 1328, in line with the Imperial eagle. The escutcheon was added in the beginning of the 16th century. Its origin is not clear, but it may be derived from the Margraves of Friedberg. The mountain disappeared around the same time. The arms have not change since.
