===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
During his time in Würzburg he used three different arms, see above.<br> | |||
The first arms were used only shortly in 1948 and show in the first quarter a cross for Christianity, in the second the arms of the Diocese of Würzburg; in the third a fountain represents the three spa towns in the region where he grew up, it also symbolises the living water as described in the Bible; the fourth shows the word Maria and the letter Omega. The latter refers to Christ himself. | |||
The second arms were used since December 1948 and show again a quartered field, but the cross is now placed over all. The letters for Maria are replaced by a crowned M, the fountain and diocesan arms remained. New is the first quarter with three rings for the holy trinity. | |||
The third arms were designed in late 1949 and show the same symbolism, but with another small cross on the main cross, and without the crown above the letter M. Also the main cross was changed from gold to silver. | |||
In Würzburg he used the motto "Nos Autem Praedicamus Christum Crucifixum" (But we proclaim Christ as the crucified one). | |||
I have no information on the symbolism of the arms in Berlin. | |||
In München he used simplified quartered arms, with in I and IV the diocesan arms and in II and III the (slightly changed) arms of the diocese of Würzburg, here also symbolising the whole Franken region, in which he was born and raised. The three rings refer again to the holy trinity, but also to his third post as (arch)bishop. | |||
In Berlin and München he used a shortened version of the motto "Praedicamus Crucifixum" (We proclaim the crucified one) | |||
