The arms were granted on July 31, 1848 by King Max II of Bayern. | The arms were granted on July 31, 1848 by King Max II of Bayern. | ||
The arms are based on elements from the old seals of the city. The wavy bend is the Kuselbach river that runs through the city. The staff is a symbol of St. Remigius. A large part of the area belonged since the 10th to a Benedictine Abbey, founded from Reims in France. Its patron saint was St. Remigius. Around the abbey Kusel the city developed and received city rights around 1286. | The arms are based on elements from the old seals of the city.
