The arms of the city (German name Liegnitz) were granted on March 12, 1453 by King Wladislaw of Bohemia and confirmed by the German Emperor in the same year.

Why the colours blue and gold were chosen is not known, the original Bohemian colours are a silver lion on red. | The arms of the city (German name Liegnitz) were granted on March 12, 1453 by King Wladislaw of Bohemia and confirmed by the German Emperor in the same year.
