The present arms are granted in 1955 and are based on the old seal of the town. The colours are the oldest known colours, dating from 1565. | The present arms are granted in 1955 and are based on the old seal of the town. The colours are the oldest known colours, dating from 1565. | ||
The arms show a dragon, that is probably derived from a Roman typane in the local St. Nicholaschurch. The town became a Markt in 1310, but seals are not known until 1514. This seal already shows the dragon. In the 17th and 18th centuries the dragon gradually changed in a basilisk with a rooster's head standing on a mountain. In the 19<sup>th</sup> century this changed again to a normal rooster. | The arms show a dragon, that is probably derived from a Roman typane in the local St. Nicholaschurch.
