===Origin/meaning===
The oldest seals of Saarburg date from the 14<sup>th</sup> century and already show a castle or fortress with a small shield with a cross. The castle indicates the importance of the city as one of the main fortresses of the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]] from 1059-1794. Saarburg received city rights in 1291.


State : [[Rheinland-Pfalz]]<br/>
The small shield shows the arms of the State of Trier. The base of the arms shows some waves, symbolising the Saar river.
District (Kreis) : [[Trier-Saarburg]] (until 1969 [[Saarburg (kreis)|Saarburg]])<br>
Verbandsgemeinde : [[Verbandsgemeinde Saarburg]]<br>
Additions : 1969 Krutweiler; 1970 Kahren

All later seals and images show a similar composition, but the size and shape of the buildings varies widely during the centuries.  Only in an album from 1910 quite different arms appear, see below.
