MUSSBACH AN DER WEINSTRASSE
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
Urban district (Stadtkreis) : Neustadt an der Weinstrasse
Incorporated into : 1969 Neustadt an der Weinstrasse
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on September 24, 1892.
The arms are based on a late 15th century seal. The arms are a combination of the arms of the Wittelsbach family and the lion of the Pfalz (see Rheinland-Pfalz). On the original seal two pillars were placed around the arms. These are still used in the seals of the town, but not in the arms. Nowadays the lion, which officially and historically should be crowned, is shown without the crown.
