[[ | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The arms are already seen on the oldest known seal of the city, which dates from the first half of the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The arms show the lion of the [[State of Bamberg]] rising from the Vils river. The city was ruled by the Bishops of Bamberg. The crown on the lion was added in the 15<sup>th</sup> century and the arms have not really changed since. | |||
