The town was in the 14<sup>th</sup> century fortified by the Bishops of Würzburg, who gave it in loan to the caretakers of the Würzburg cathedral (Domkapittel) in 1406. The oldest seals date from the 16<sup>th</sup> century (1537) and already show the grapes and the crosier. The crosier disappeared in the 19<sup>th</sup> century, but was re-introduced when the arms were granted in 1956. The crosier is the symbol for the Bishops, the grapes symbolise the importance of viticulture in the area. | The town was in the 14<sup>th</sup> century fortified by the Bishops of Würzburg, who gave it in loan to the caretakers of the Würzburg cathedral (Domkapittel) in 1406.
