Origin/meaning
Rottweil was already in the 13th century an important imperial city. The city remained an imperial city until 1802, when it became part of Württemberg. The oldest seal, dating from the early 13th century, and all later seals show the one-headed imperial eagle. The small cross, probably added to distinguish the arms from similar arms, appeared in the 16th century. The cross is the symbol of the main church, the Holy Cross church.
After the merger with the 6 other municipalities the arms did not change.
In 1463 Rottweil associated itself with Swiss Confederation and in 1519 became a 'Zugewandter Ort', i.e. a city with a strong connection to the Swiss Confederation, but not being a canton by itself, although 'cantonal arms' with an goat were known, see below.
