The arms show in the upper part the patron saint of the city, St. John. Until the 16<sup>th</sup> century the saint appeared in seals only from the waist upwards, since the 16<sup>th</sup> century standing. The lower part shows the arms of Franken (Franconia) the part of Bayern in which the city is situated. The arms are used as such since 1946. | The arms show in the upper part the patron saint of the city, St. John.
