Shield parted per fess; above Argent, parted by a pallet wavy Argent superimposing four hexagonal columns issuant Azure, at dexter parted by a centred cross Sable, at sinister by a centred cross Gules; beneath Azure a grapevine Or at dexter and a grain ear of the same at sinister.
Meaning:
The old arms simply displayed the two crosses separated by a blue pallet wavy. The black cross displays the arms of the Archbishopric of Köln, the red cross those of the Archbishopric of Trier. The pallet wavy is a representation of the name giving Kasbach, a creek, which had also been the border between both archbishoprics. The symbols of the most important business lines were added later. The columns are symbolsing the depletion of basalt between the two settlement cores. The charges in base are symbolising viticulture and agriculture.

Shield Gules a key Or in pale, chief Argent parted by a centred cross Sable.
Meaning:
Linz had been a possession of the Archbishopric of Köln since 1250, finally since 1262. City rights were granted in 1329 by Archbishop Heinrich of Virneburg. The oldest city seal already displayed the cross of the archbishopric and the key as attribute of its patron saint St. Peter. Secret seals from the 14th and 15th century and the greater city seal displayed a small impending cross over a big key. Linz was acquired by the Kingdom of Preußen in 1815. The current pattern was introduced in 1839.
