LAABER
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Regensburg (until 1973 Parsberg)
Additions : 1971 Bergstetten, Endorf, Großetzenberg
Official blazon
In Schwarz ein gekrönter und rot gezungter goldener Löwenkopf, über dem nebeneinander drei stehende Rauten schweben, die mittlere blau, die seitlichen silber.
Origin/meaning
The arms where granted on September 7, 1442 by Duke Heinrich the Rich of Bayern, who acquired the town in 1435 from the Lords of Laaber.
The arms are a unique combination of the diamonds of Bayern and the lion of the Pfalz (see the arms of Bayern). The arms have never really changed, except for sometimes the number of diamonds and, in the 19th century, once change of the lion into a sheep's head. Only recently the diamonds have been reduced in size, as can be seen by comparing the present arms above and the arms as used until the 1980s as seen below.
