Origin/meaning

The town received city rights in 1355 from Margrave Karl IV of Nürnberg, but the town never developed into a real city.
The arms first appear on the 16^th century seal of the town and show in the second and third quarter the quartered shield of the Hohenzollern dynasty, in the 14^th century Margraves of Nürnberg. The grapes indicate the importance of the viticulture for the town and the neighbouring area. The arms thus have not changed since, even though different images exist, such as golden fields and with the grapes in the second and third quarter.

The municipal stamp shown in 1892	The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925
The arms in the Deutsches Wappenmuseum	Municipal stationery, 1960s

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
