No arms or seals are known prior to the early 19<sup>th</sup> century. In the seals from the 19<sup>th</sup> century the arms showed only the grill. The arms were proposed in 1900 by the State Archives, who wanted to include the historical importance of Speyer to the arms. The new arms were adopted by the council on December 29, 1900.
