The district forms the heart of the former Territory of Coburg. In 1353 it became a possession of the Princes of Sachsen. The area belonged to Sachsen, and later to Sachsen-Coburg(-Gotha) until the late 19<sup>th</sup> century. After the first World War it became its own free-state which was incorporated into Bayern in 1920. The arms thus show the arms of [[Sachsen]] in the left part and the diamonds of [[Bayern]] in the right part.
