Origin/meaning
Binsdorf was founded as a city by the Counts of Hohenzollern, and the oldest seal, dating from 1378, thus shows the quartered arms of the Hohenzollern family. In the late 14th century the city was a possession of the Counts of Hohenberg and the seals showed the divided (silver and red) shield of the Hohenberg family. In 1454 the city became part of Austria, but the Austrian arms do not appear in the local seals before the 18th century. The silver and red shield, however remained the arms of the city. In the early 19th century a deer antler, derived from the arms of Württemberg was added in the upper half.
In 1959 the antler was replaced by the winged lion, symbol of St. Mark, the local patron saint.
