The oldest seals of the town are known since 1481. The seal showed a shield with in the upper part three diamonds, taken from the arms of Bayern. The area was a possession of the Wittelsbach family, Kings of Bayern. The lower part showed a canting square well (Kaltenbrunn=cold well). In the second seal, known since 1564, the diamonds were replaced by the points, but still in the Bavarian colours. In the 17<sup>th</sup> century the well was round, but otherwise the arms haven't changed. | The oldest seals of the town are known since 1481.
