Object history
Deutsch: Die Grafen von Andechs-Plassenberg gründeten Kulmbach. Über die Grafen von Orlamünde kam Kulmbach 1340 an die Burggrafen von Nürnberg. Seit der Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts sind Abdrucke eines Siegels überliefert, das nicht vor 1420 geschnitten worden ist. Im gespaltenen Schild steht vorne die Zollernvierung, hinten der Löwe aus dem Wappen der Grafen von Orlamünde und der Adler aus dem Wappen der Grafen von Andechs-Meranien. Eine farbige Wappenzeichnung ist im Stadtbuch von 1530 überliefert. Abbildungen sind auch auf zwei Wappensteinen aus dem frühen 16. Jahrhundert und von 1592 überliefert. In einer Abbildung von 1597 ist die hintere Schildhälfte geteilt. Oben steht ein hundeähnlicher Löwe mit einem Ring um den Leib; daraus wurde im Lauf der Zeit eine Meerkatze. In einem Wappenbuch von 1605/09 stehen ein schwarzer Löwe in goldenem Feld und ein silberner Adler in rotem Feld. Offenbar hielt man die beiden für die Wappenfiguren der Burggrafen von Nürnberg und der Markgrafen von Brandenburg-Bayreuth. Bei der Wappenrevision von 1819 zeigte die Zollernvierung die bayerischen Landesfarben Silber und Blau, der Löwe stand rot in schwarzem Feld, der Adler silbern in Rot. 1834 bekam die Vierung wieder die Farben Silber und Schwarz, der Löwe stand schwarz in goldenem Feld. Erst 1922 wurde das Wappen in seiner alten Form und in seinen alten Farben wieder angenommen.
English: Kulmbach had the characteristics of a city since the 13th century and had been a residence of the Zollern kin since 1397. Nevertheless the existence of seals has been proven not before the middle of the 15th century. The current pattern was displayed on seals until 1569, in a city guide from 1530 and on architectural sculptures until the end of the 16th century. Eagle and lion are taken from the arms of the Counts of Andechs-Meranien and their heirs, the Counts of Orlamünde. Since 1819 both animals were erroneously considered as belonging to the Zollern kin. In 1819 the tinctures were changed as follows: The dexter half was quartered of blue and white, the lion was red in a black field and the eagle was white in a red field. In 1922 the old tinctures were restored.
