The arms are first seen on the local seal of Kufstein dating from 1376. The seal showed a canting Kufe, or salt barrel, above some mountains rising from some waves. The barrel obviously was chosen as a canting symbol and a symbol for the salt mining in the area. The mountains and waves are symbols for the surroundings. During later centuries the waves disappeared and the mountains gradually changed into the present mountain. | The arms are first seen on the local seal of Kufstein dating from 1376.
