Im blauen Schild auf grünem Berg drei rotbedachte silberne Türme, dem Berg aufgelegt ein goldener Schild mit einem grünen Zweig mit drei roten Rosen im Schildhaupt und einem rot en Löwen, der mit der rechten Pranke eine schwarze Laterne trägt.
Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of the city (at that time named Walberg) dates from 1289 and shows three towers on a hill, with a star and a flower between the towers. The second seal is known from the early 14th century, which shows again thre etowers, but now in the base a lion and a rose branch. The latter two were later placed in a shield, and the above arms appeared for the first time in 1689. The lion holds a small light, a canting element (Licht=light). The meaning of the lion and the roses is not known.
