Object history
Deutsch: Das Wappen ist eine getreue Nachbildung des ältesten Siegels der seit 1251 entstandenen nassauischen Stadt (Abdrucke seit 1269). Die Gestalten sind die gräflichen Brüder Walram und Otto I. vor ihrem Schutzpatron. Im kleinen Siegel um 1400 erscheint nur St. Petrus über dem Nassauer Löwenschild. Letzterer allein, gehalten von Maria und Petrus, tritt in den Gerichtssiegeln vom 14. bis 18. Jahrhundert auf. Das Stadtzeichen um 1637 bildete nur die Ligatur SHB (d. h. Stadt Her Born).
English: The coat of arms is an accurate copy of the oldest seal of the city, which is known since 1269. The arms display a city view and display in the front St. Peter, the patron saint of the city, with the brothers Otto and Walram of Nassau. The city was a possession of the Counts of Nassau, who had also granted city rights in 1251. Later seals display either the lion of Nassau alone, or combined with St. Peter. When the city applied for the arms, it was decided to use the composition of the oldest seal.
