Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted in 1448 from King Friedrich III.

The oldest known seal of the city, dating from 1486 thus also showed the above arms. The three roses are derived from the arms of the Counts of Moosburg and their successors the Lords of Stein, who ruled the city until 1306. The arms have never been changed, with the exception of an image from the early 18^th century. The arms were in 1723 shown identically to the arms of the Counts of Toerring who ruled the city at the time.
