===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were granted in 1925 and are based on the oldest known seals. Lindenfels received city rights in 1336, but the oldest known seal dates from the 16<sup>th</sup> century. It shows a canting linden tree on a mountain (Fels=rock) and a small shield with the arms of the Palatinate (Pfalz), quartered with the lion of the Pfalz and the diamonds of Bayern. The city belonged to the Pfalz since 1277. | The arms were granted in 1925 and are based on the oldest known seals.
