In Blau über roter Zinnenmauer mit offenem Tor ein wachsendes, rot nimbiertes, golden bewehrtes silbernes Gotteslamm, das die Osterfahne an goldenem Kreuzstab trägt.
Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of the city is known from 1423, but dates from the late 14th century. The seal showed an unclear figure, which has been interpreted as a beehive or a large bell. All seals after 1428 (when the city became a possession of the Dukes of Bayern), show the Paschal Lamb (a canting symbol, from Osterlamm) above a city wall. The composition as such did not change (except for a green base in some images), but the size and shape of the different elements has varied widely during the centuries.
