====Origin/meaning====
The arms of Darmstadt are based on the old seals of the city, which already showed a lion and a fleur-de-lis. The lion is the lion of the counts of [[Katzenelnbogen]]. The fleur-de-lis is a very common symbol for towns and villages in this former county. On top of the shield the Grand-Ducal coronet of Hessen may be placed.

The present arms were granted in 1917 and the colours were based on those on a stone dating from the 15<sup>th</sup> century. Currently the city uses again the crown on the shield, but for every day purposes the crown is omitted.
