Origin/meaning

The arms were granted at the same time as the city rights, by Emperor Maximilian I on March 22, 1501.

The arms of Annaberg show St. Anne the patron saint of the city, surrounded by two miners and a small shield with miner's tools. Around the city silver is mined since 1492, and mining is still of importance.
