Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 17, 1993.
The arms first appear on a seal of 1678, after the merging of several villages into the new city of Annaburg. The roses probably symbolise the former villages.
 The arms on a municipal stamp (1892) |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
