===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were officially adopted on September 30, 1927. | |||
The deer as a symbol for the small city of Eglisau appears first in a chronicle from 1488. Ever since a deer has been the symbol of the city, but the meaning of the deer is unknown. | |||
During the centuries the deer has been displayed in many different ways. Most images show a black deer as in the current arms, sometimes the deer is facing the other direction, the small hill is missing or the colour is different. A brownn version appears on the old school building from 1682 and in two local armorials (one from 1547) the colours are reversed (golden deer in black). | |||
As the local banner also showed a black deer in gold as early as 1513, the local council decided for these colours in 1927. | |||
