Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on January 26, 1838 by King Ludwig I of Bayern.
The town at the time applied for arms, based on the fact that the town had already a court in the 15th century. The town applied for a very complicated and non-heraldic composition, which was changed into the Roman symbol of justice. The arms have not changed, except that often the bands on the fasces were shown in red.
 The arms in Kramer (1841) |
 The municipal stamp shown in 1892 |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
