BINGEN AM RHEIN
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Mainz-Bingen (until 1969 Bingen)

| German |
Origin/meaningThe arms show St. Martin, the patron saint of the town and the arms of the State of Mainz. Bingen became a city in the early 13th century and the oldest seal of the city, shows St. Martin sitting on a throne like a bishop. This is an identical seal as several other cities in the State of Mainz (see Miltenberg and Aschaffenburg). Later seals show St. Martin in the more common way, as a knight cutting his coat for a beggar. Not always was St. Martin shown on the arms, sometimes only the wheel of Mainz was used.
