The cathedral can be seen in the arms of the city in a roll of arms from 1398, a relief from 1469 and many images from later centuries. As there was no consistency in the images, it was decided in 1845 to use the Western façade of the cathedral in the arms. The colours are known since the 16<sup>th</sup> century. | The cathedral can be seen in the arms of the city in a roll of arms from 1398, a relief from 1469 and many images from later centuries.

Speyer was the capital city of the independent [[Diocese of Speyer]]. The diocese used as arms a silver cross in blue, which can be seen in many arms of villages and towns that historically belonged to the State of Speyer. The State was dissolved as an independent country in 1803. Examples of village arms with the cross are: [[Arzheim]], [[Bruchsal (kreis)|Bruchsal]], [[Deidesheim]], [[Elchesheim]], [[Friedelhausen]], [[Hilpertsau]], [[Hochspeyer]], [[Philippsburg]], [[Rauenberg]] and others. | |||
