The eagle has always been the main part of the arms. To distinguish the arms from the many other arms with the imperial eagle, the eagle shown wearing some kind of hat in the 14<sup>th</sup> century. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century this was changed into a laurel wreath and in 1812 to the typical hat used by the Kurfürst of the Pfalz (Prince-Elect of the Palatinate). In 1819 the eagle was no longer crowned, and was facing left. Later in the 19<sup>th</sup> century a letter E was shown on the breast and the eagle was again facing right. The present arms date from the early 20<sup>th</sup> century and show the eagle facing right and wearing a crown. | The eagle has always been the main part of the arms.

Currently the town uses the arms with the typical hat, and with red claws, even though the blazon states differently. | |||
