Object history
Deutsch: Bereits seit dem 16. Jahrhundert wird das heute von der Stadt geführte Wappen auf den Siegeln des Marktes Erbach nachgewiesen. Nach einem Abdruck des Erbacher Marktsiegels von 1719, gefertigt mit einem Siegelstock, der seinem Stil nach schon aus der Zeit um 1660 stammt, zeigt das Wappen den steigenden Löwen in einem Gold über Rot geteilten Schild in verwechselten Farben. Erbach verfügt also als eine der wenigen Gemeinden des Landkreises über ein außergewöhnlich altes Ortswappen, doch besteht über die Herkunft des Symbols keine absolute Klarheit.
English: Erbach had the title of a market town since the late middle ages. The rulers often changed. When Erbach became part of Hither Austria (Vorderösterrich), it was one of the very few towns having own seals. The first seal is reported from the middle of the 16th century, displaying a lion. The lion was considered to be that one of the Wittelsbach kin, because the town belonged to the branch line Bayern-Landshut from 1488 until 1504. In 1954 (not provided) the original pattern was restored, displaying the lion in a shield divided per fess. The colours were chosen arbitrarily.
