The arms show a walled tower, which is a canting symbol (Neunburg = new-castle). The tower already appears on the oldest known seal of the city, which dates from the late 14<sup>th</sup> century. Later seals until the 16<sup>th</sup> century also showed only a tower. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century the city became a possession of the Counts of the Pfalz, and two small shields appear, the lion of the Pfalz and the diamonds of the Wittelsbach family as Counts of the Pfalz. In the 17<sup>th</sup> century the tower appears again as a single symbol, in the shape as in the above arms. Similar shaped, the tower appears on decorations in the city hall in the 17<sup>th</sup> century. The colours of the arms are known since 1812. | The arms show a walled tower, which is a canting symbol (Neunburg = new-castle).
