Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1468 by Duke Otto II of Bayern and the Pfalz.

In the original description the tree in the upper half is described as a juniper tree (Segelbaum or Sadebaum, Juniperus sabina). The original image and all later images shoe, however, a non-specific tree. The above image is based on the original image. The meaning or origin of the tree is not known. The lower half shows the arms of Bayern.
Except for the shape and size of the tree, the arms have not changed since.

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
