Geviert von Silber und Schwarz.

Origin/meaning

The arms show the quartered shield of the Hohenzollern family, as the city was a possession of this family since the 14th century.

All seals and images of the city have shown these arms, sometimes as a shield only, sometimes with crest and supporters. The city still uses these nowadays on some occasions.
