===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms show St.George, the patron saint of the town in an unusual way (mostly he is shown killing a dragon). The composition of the saint, the shield with his cross and the fish already appears on a seal from the 14<sup>th</sup> century. On that earliest seal there are still two fish, all later seals show only one fish. On images the two fish appear until the 16<sup>th</sup> century, and the lance is sometimes replaced by a dragon. The fish most likely indicate the position on the Ammersee (lake). | The arms show St.George, the patron saint of the town in an unusual way (mostly he is shown killing a dragon).
