Wappen von Sulzbach am Main/Arms (crest) of Sulzbach am Main
Official blazon
German In Rot gekreuzt zwei silberne Salzhaken, zwischen denen oben ein silberner Schild mit drei roten Sparren schwebt; rechts davon ein sechsspeichiges silbernes Rad, links eine silberne heraldische Lilie.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 18, 1955.

The name Sulzbach means saltwater-brook, and refers to the historical salt mining in the area (since 1433). This is reflected by the two salt hooks in the arms.

The wheel is the symbol of the State of Mainz, to which the area belonged until 1803. The fleur-de-lys is taken from the arms of the Lords of Sulzbach, which originated from the village and became extinct around 1500.

The small shield in the upper part shows the arms of the Lords of Eppstein, who had large estates in the area from the 12th century until approximately 1544.

The red and silver are the colours of Franken as well as the State of Mainz.
