Already in the same year the arms appeared on the new seal of the city. The arms remained unchanged until 1810, when the city became part of Bayern. All references to the older states had to be removed, or changed. For Bayreuth it meant that the black and silver quarters were changed into blue and silver (the Bavarian colours) and that the black lion in the crest also changed into blue. The crest also was replaced by a mural crown to avoid the crest of the former ruler. These colours were used until 1840. In the late 19<sup>th</sup> century the historical colours were restored. The mantling, crest and helmet were officially removed in 1928, but are still sometimes used. | Already in the same year the arms appeared on the new seal of the city.
