Origin/meaning
The oldest known seal of the city dates from 1406 and shows already two crossed axes (Beile) as a canting symbol for the city. Below the two axes was a crosier, a symbol for the Eichstätt Abbey, to which the city at the time belonged.
On March 18, 1819 the arms were changes, see below, showing two canting axes in the colours of Bayern. Only in 2006 the municipality returned to the historical arms.
Although Hupp mentions the arms above, he gives in his albums the old arms with the crosier, see below.
