In Gold aus blauen Wellen wachsender, mit einer silbernen Schrägleiste überdeckter, rot gekrönter, rot bewehrter schwarzer Löwe.
Origin/meaning
The arms are already seen on the oldest known seal of the city, which dates from the first half of the 14th century. The arms show the lion of Bamberg rising from the Vils river. The city was ruled by the Bishops of Bamberg. The crown on the lion was added in the 15th century and the arms have not really changed since.
