Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1809 by King Max I Joseph of Bayern and confirmed in 1985.
The oldest seals of the city, dating from the 13th century, already showed a castle gate with in the gate a canting comb (Kamm). Above the shield the seals showed the crest of the Margraves of Cham-Vohburg. Later, when the city had become a possession of the Wittelsbach family, Dukes of Bayern, the seals showed the same arms, but now with the Wittelsbach crest.
On the smaller seals of the city only a shield with the comb was used.
The chief with the swords was added only in 1809. The diamonds in the chief are derived from the arms of the Wittelsbach family.
The arms around 1500
The arms by Apian (1559)
The arms in the Wappen-Sammlung (+/- 1910)
The arms in an album from around 1910
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925
The arms in an album from 1930s
The arms in an album from 1968
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
