German	In Rot ein sechseckiger silberner Stein, kreisförmig mit drei (2:1) darin eingehauenen Spitzhämmern besteckt.
English	blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in the present form in 1930 and are canting (Beil = axe, Stein = stone).

The oldest known seal of the city (dating from 1382) only shows a canting axe. Later seals all show an axe, sometimes accompanied from (heraldic) roses. In 1535 the arms showed three stones and three hammers, no axes anymore. From the end of the 16^th century the number of stones decreased and the axes remained hammers. All later arms and seals showed three hammers and a stone, in different shapes. The colours are also known since 1535.
