Origin/meaning
Urach became a city at the end of the 13th century and the oldest seal dates from the same time. It already shows a horn, but without feathers and not in a shield. The horn was placed in a shield and finally in the early 20th century the feathers were added, which were taken from the crest of the Counts of Württemberg.
The arms around 1500
The arms in the Chorographia Württemberg (Wolleber, 1591)
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925
The arms on a manhole cover
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
