Augsburg Flag: City Colours with a Medieval History

Red, green and white have been documented as Augsburg’s city colours since 1372. Their long history makes this colour combination a recognisable expression of local identity.

The Zirbelnuss and Augsburg’s Roman Heritage

Augsburg’s best-known heraldic symbol is the Zirbelnuss, a stylised pine cone also called the Pyr. After a stone pine cone was discovered in 1467, an earlier grape-like emblem was interpreted as a pine cone, linking the city’s heraldry to its Roman past.
