Marktredwitz received city rights in 1384 and the oldest known seal dates from 1441. The seal already shows the above arms. | Marktredwitz received city rights in 1384 and the oldest known seal dates from 1441. The seal already shows the above arms. | ||
The eagle in the upper half is the Imperial eagle, as the city was historically an imperial possession. The wheel in the lower half is a canting symbol, Rad meaning wheel. All later seals and images have shown the above arms, although the colours have sometimes been changed during the centuries. | The eagle in the upper half is the Imperial eagle, as the city was historically an imperial possession.
