The arms probably date from the late 15<sup>th</sup> century, as Geisenhausen received town rights in 1453. The base shows the diamonds of the Dukes of Bayern. The upper part shows a canting house (Haus), but looks more like a castle. During the centuries the shape and size of the house has changed considerably. The present arms were granted on October 10, 1953 and are based on the oldest seal. | The arms probably date from the late 15<sup>th</sup> century, as Geisenhausen received town rights in 1453.
