===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The arms show a man's head of unknown origin. It has been stated that the head is the head of Christ, a Hun or a Marshal of Pappenheim. The head first appears on seals dating from the 13<sup>th</sup> century. It is a head of a (white), bearded king. Which is logical as the city grew around an estate from the Kings of Germany from the Staufen dynasty. In the 15<sup>th</sup> century the head appears beardless and instead of a golden crown a wreath of leaves is used. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century the chain of pearls was added. Finally, around 1560 the head was made black and has been so ever since. The crown also re-appeared. Finally, the colours changed regularly, but were determined in 1818 as they are now. | The arms show a man's head of unknown origin.
