Meaning:
Radeburg was ruled by the Wettin kin since 1123. The tinctures are those of the kin. Radeburg was first mentioned as a city in 1289. There had been a mayor and a council since the 15th century.The arms are based on a city seal and appeared first in 1450 but are proably older. Wall and towers are stressing the status of a city.
