MURNAU AM STAFFELSEE
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Garmisch-Partenkirchen (until 1973 Weilheim)
Additions : 1974 Weindorf; 1978 Hechendorf, Riegsee (partly), Seehausen am Staffelsee (partly)
Official blazon
In Silber ein links gewendeter, widersehender, rot bewehrter grüner Lindwurm mit Flammenzunge.
Origin/meaning
Murnau received special rights in 1350 from Ludwig of Brandenburg, such as a market right. The oldest seal probably dates from the same time, and already shows the dragon. The arms never changed since. The colours are known since 1565 and 1568 and haven't changed either.
The actual origin or meaning of the dragon is not known.
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 The arms used on a postage mark by the municipality |
