Object history
Deutsch: Das älteste bekannte Siegel Amöneburgs stammt aus dem Jahr 1258 und zeigt einen Bischof zwischen zwei Türmen. Alle späteren Siegel, bis auf eines, zeigen die Zusammensetzung von St. Martin und dem Bettler. St. Martin ist der Schutzpatron von Mainz, von deren Bischöfen die Stadt einst gegründet wurde. Einzige Ausnahme ist ein Siegel aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, das den Heiligen Georg und den Drachen zeigt. Im 19. Jahrhundert wurde die Komposition als Wappen verwendet und die Farben offiziell festgelegt. Nach dem Zusammenschluss mit den Nachbarorten in den 1970er-Jahren wurde das alte Wappen um das Rad des Landes Mainz und den Buchstaben A als Anfangsbuchstaben der Stadt ergänzt.
English: Amöneburg was founded by the Archbishops of Mainz, who also granted city rights in the first quarter of the 13th century. The oldest known seal with prints since 1258 displays a bishop between two mural walls. All later seals, except one, show the composition of St. Martin and the beggar. St. Martin was the patron saint of the archbishopric. The only exception is an 18th century seal, which displays St. George and the dragon. In the 19th century again the version with St. Martin was used as coat of arms and the colours were officially fixed. After the merger with the neighbouring villages Erfurtshausen, Mardorf, Roßdorf and Rüdigheim on December 31st, 1971 the old arms were modified by adding the wheel of the Archbishopric of Mainz and the letter "A" as the city's initial.
