The arms were granted in 1906. The arms already appear on the oldest known seal of the city, known since 1380. The upper half shows a lion, derived from the arms of the Counts of [[Katzenelnbogen]], who acquired the area in 1300. They also granted the city rights in 1324. <br/> | The arms were granted in 1906. The arms already appear on the oldest known seal of the city, known since 1380.
