DACHAU (DAH)
State : Bayern
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on July 10, 1954 and confirmed on July 15, 1976.
The arms indicate the strong ties of the district with the Wittelsbach dynasty, Dukes and Kings of Bayern. The lower part shows the oldest known arms of the family, as used until 1229. Since 1125 a branch of the dynasty named itself Counts of Dachau, and became a very influential family. The main branch of the dynasty used since the 13th century the diamonds, shown in the chief. The chief also indicates that Dachau was one of the territories of the Duchy and Kingdom of Bayern.
