Origin/meaning

The oldest seal of the city is known from 1542 and shows the wheel of the State of Mainz, only with 8 instead of 6 spokes. The arms did not change, except from 1803-1806, when the wheel was replaced by three eagles. The eagles were the arms of the Counts of Leiningen who ruled the city in these years.
