Origin/meaning
Weingarten, named Altdorf until 1865 when it was merged with the local monastery Weingarten, was one of the major strongholds of the Lords of Welfen in the early 12th century.
The lower two lions in the arms are the lions of the Welfen family. The village became an imperial village in 1268, a Markt in 1377 and finally a city in 1865. The arms with the four lions were first granted by Emperor Charles V in 1555. The two upper lions are the lions of Habsburg (the imperial family) and hold two smaller shields with the imperial eagle and the arms of Austria. The area belonged officially to Austria at the time. In 1865 the escutcheon with the canting grape vines was added.
