Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 8, 1955.
Hammelburg was a city ruled by the Bishops of Fulda. The oldest seals of the city, which date from 1283-1360 thus show St. Bonifacius on a throne. St. Bonifacius is the patron saint of Fulda. In the 15th century two small shields were added with the cross of Fulda and a canting castle on a mountain. At the same time the arms developed separate from the seals. The arms also show the cross of Fulda, but instead of a castle, the lilies of St. Simplicius were added. The latter is the second patron saint of Fulda and the city.
