English	blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms show the head of St. Mauritius, the patron saint of the city. The arms first appear in the early 16^th century, but it was already used as a symbol for the city on coins from the early 14^th century. The seals showed the arms of the rulers of the city, first the Counts of Henneberg and later the Counts of Meissen. The present image is practically unchanged since the 16^th century.

On November 10, 1934 the city received new arms; divided of gold and black, with over the partition line a sword and a swastika, see below. These arms were used until 1945.
