</gallery> | |||
The first arms were adopted in 1939, but are much older, and show an ibex. The arms are derived from the arms of the Knights of Glarus and were already used by Johannes I von Glarus in 1299. The family later (15<sup>th</sup> century) settled in Zürich, but the city had already adopted the ibex as its arms. The meaning of the colours is not known. | |||
I have no information on the meaning of the current arms. | |||
