Freudenberg received city rights in 1333. The city used in the 14<sup>th</sup> century a seal with an eagle and rose derived from the arms of the Counts of Wertheim-Breuberg, who governed the city at the time. In 1612 the city became a possession of the State of Würzburg and the new seals showed St. Lawrence, the local patron saint, as well as the arms of Bishop [[Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn]]. Seals with similar compositions were used until the late 19<sup>th</sup> century when new arms were devised. These showed an eagle and rose from the Counts of Wertheim, the local landscape and a small shield with a bar (Main ?). | |||
The present arms were officially granted in 1962 and show in the right half the symbols of the Counts of Wertheim, and in the upper left half a wavy bar for the Main river, and in the lower left half some hills, symbolising the local geographical situation. | The present arms were officially granted in 1962 and show in the right half the symbols of the Counts of Wertheim, and in the upper left half a wavy bar for the Main river, and in the lower left half some hills, symbolising the local geographical situation. | ||
