Already in 1325 the eagle was added as the supporter behind the shield. The eagle was the Imperial Eagle as the Dukes of Austria, from the Habsburg dynasty, were Kings (and Emperors) of the Holy Roman Empire at the time. Ever since the Habsburg family has used the eagle, first one-headed, later two-headed as the main supporter. The shield itself always was composed of the arms of the many territories the Emperors put their claims on. These arms were always personal arms and are thus not dealt with here. | Already in 1325 the eagle was added as the supporter behind the shield.
