Wörth Coat of Arms

Shield parted by a thin centred cross Gules, often depicted in Petra Sancta code,1st quarter Gules a coronet Or, 2nd and 3rd quarter vair, 4th quarter Gules.
Meaning:
A seal, probably made after 1438, displayed a bishop in half length portrait under a canopy and the wheel of the Archbishopric of Mainz in base. Another seal from about 1720 is also referring to the arms of the archbishopric, but under its arms are the "lion arms" of the Counts of Schönborn. The current pattern is exclusively in use since 1819. It displays the family arms of the Lords of Kronberg (see our page: Kronberg im Taunus). Johann Schweikard of Kronberg, Archbishop of Mainz transformed the Lordship of a Wörth to a fiefdom of his family in 1624.

The arms were introduced in 1819. The symbols have never been approved officially.
