Origin/meaning

Jockgrim was a possession of the Archbishops of Speyer and received city rights in the late 14^th century. The oldest seal of the city dates from the late 18^th century and already shows the letter A.

In 1925 the arms were officially granted. The meaning of the A is not clear, it may be derived from a plough iron, but this is not certain.

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
