Description

Red-yellow stripes, 15.05.1975. The former Augsburg county was enlarged during the 1972 municipal reform with Schwabmünchen county and parts of Wertingen and Neuburg. Sources: Linder and Schmidt 2000, arms image from Linder and Olzog 1996.

Stefan Schwoon, 22 August and 15 October 2001

From Ralf Hartemink's International Civic Arms website:

The new arms were granted on May 15, 1975 [and] combine the chief from the old arms of Augsburg, with the cross and fleur-de-lis from the old arms of Schwabmünchen. The fleur-de-lis was also part of the old arms.

Literature: [presumably Linder and Olzog 1996].
