The oldest known seal of the city dates from the early 15<sup>th</sup> century and already shows the above arms. The quartered shield is the arms of the Hohenzollern dynasty, as they owned the city at the time. The swan is a canting element (Schwan=swan). The swan appeared as a single symbol on a seal from 1652, and again in the early 19<sup>th</sup> century, when the city became a part of Bayern and thus all references to old dynasties and states became politically unacceptable. In 1933 the historical arms were officially restored and granted. | The oldest known seal of the city dates from the early 15<sup>th</sup> century and already shows the above arms.
