Wurzach developed into a city in the late 13<sup>th</sup> century and the oldest seal dates from the first half of the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The seal already showed a lobster, which probably symbolises the lobster fishing in the Aach river. In 1558 the first image with three lobsters appears and in the 17<sup>th</sup> century the arms showed three crawling lobsters on a black bend, and a knight as supporter. These arms remained in use and were officially adopted in 1934 (see below). | Wurzach developed into a city in the late 13<sup>th</sup> century and the oldest seal dates from the first half of the 14<sup>th</sup> century.
