Barby was founded as a city at the end of the 13<sup>th</sup> century and has been the residence of many noble dynasties. The arms are based on the oldest seal, known from the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The arms never really changed, except that the shape and size of the castle has changed according to the fashion of the time. The present shape dates from 1936. | Barby was founded as a city at the end of the 13<sup>th</sup> century and has been the residence of many noble dynasties.
