The oldest seal of the city, dating from the early 14<sup>th</sup> century, shows a single eagle. In 1324 the town became part of Württemberg and soon thereafter the three deer antlers appeared. At first the antlers were in the proper colours (black on gold) , but in the 16th or 17<sup>th</sup> century the colours were changed. This was probably done to avoid confusion with the arms of Württemberg. | The oldest seal of the city, dating from the early 14<sup>th</sup> century, shows a single eagle.

The right part of the shield is probably derived from the arms of the St. Pancratius monastery in the town. | The right part of the shield is probably derived from the arms of the St. Pancratius monastery in the town. | ||
