Kreuzwertheim Coat of Arms

Baroque shield parted per fess, above Argent a market cross issuant Sable, beneath Azure three heraldic roses Argent seeded Or ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
Formerly named simply Wertheim, the Borough gained the rights of a market town in 1009. In the 14th century the prefix "Kreuz" was added, in order to distinguish the town from the namesake nearby city of Wertheim. The prefix had been chosen due to the existence of a cross on the local market square. It meanwhile is rebuilt. It appeared on town seals since around 1600. The lower half displays the family arms of the Counts of Wertheim , name givers of the town. The family gained the town as a fiefdom in 1362 and gained the right to establish a mint in 1368.
