Similarly, on another 14<sup>th</sup> century seal the arms, without fish, are placed on the breast of the imperial eagle. The colours are also not changed since the roll of arms in 1530, the oldest coloured image of the arms. Sometimes, however, the fish was shown in silver on a blue pale. | |||

In the year 1497 Prince Philipp had a huge fish served at a royal banquet in Heidelberg. The fish was 6m in length and weighed about 350 pounds. This fish was caught in the Kaiserwoog (imperial pond) in Lautern. The fish had a ring around its neck, stating that it was the first fish released in the pond on the 5th of October 1230 by emperor Frederic II. The fish thus was 267 years old at the time. | In the year 1497 Prince Philipp had a huge fish served at a royal banquet in Heidelberg. The fish was 6m in length and weighed about 350 pounds.
