The oldest seal of the town dates from the 14<sup>th</sup> century and it shows two crossed crosiers, symbol for the Bishops of Würzburg, to which the town belonged. In the next seal (15<sup>th</sup> century) the arms are quartered with the banner of the State of Würzburg. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century the arms were completely changed, and showed a large bend, with on the bend the banner of Würzburg. This composition is also seen in the different rolls of arms from the 16<sup>th</sup> century. The seals and images since the 17<sup>th</sup> century, however, only show the banner. | The oldest seal of the town dates from the 14<sup>th</sup> century and it shows two crossed crosiers, symbol for the Bishops of Würzburg, to which the town belonged.
