VELDEN
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Nürnberger Land (until 1973 Hersbruck)
Additions : 1972 Viehhofen, Treuf
Official blazon
- (de) Geteilt und oben gespalten; vorne in Gold am Spalt ein halber schwarzer Adler, hinten fünfmal schräg geteilt von Rot und Silber; unten in Rot ein waagrechter silberner Fisch.
Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of the city dates from the latter half of the 14th century, as it shows the lion of Bohemia above a fish. The town was part of Bohemia from 1353-1401 and received city rights from the King of Bohemia in 1376.
The fish probably symbolises the importance of fisheries in the Pegnitz river. In 1506 the Velden was acquired by the city of Nürnberg and the Bohemian lion (which had been used until then, even though the city was a possession of the Wittelsbach family in between), was replaced by the arms of the city of Nürnberg.
In 1806, when the city became part of Bayern, the reference to Nürnberg was removed and the city used only the arms of Bayern. From 1819-1836 the city used two fish, but in 1836 the historical arms were restored.
