    Boppard Coat of Arms

    Shield Or an eagle Sable, armed and tongued Gules, upon his breast an inescutcheeon Argent parted by a cross Gules.
    Meaning:
    Boppard was considered to be a Free Imperial City in the 13th century. Thus the first known city seal from 1216 displayed a wall and gate with the imperial eagle on its roof ridge. The 2nd seal from 1236 was augmented by an image of the local church and St. Severus, its patron saint in the open gate. The eagle was placed onto the ridge at the eastern end of the nave. The one-headed eagle appeared on all secret seals in the 14th century. On the seals of mayor and court the inescutcheon with cross was added, as the city had been impawned to the Archbishopric of Trier in 1312. Arms without inescutcheon were used until 1911, when the inescutcheon was added arbitrarily. In 1932 also Otto Hupp replaced his former correct image without inescutcheon by that one with inescutcheon. In 1962 the inescutcheon was abolished again and in 1975 reestablished.

    Flag, banner and arms were approved on 14 August 1985. The eagle without inescutcheon was confirmed before in 1817 and 1962, the eagle with inescutcheon in 1911. The old flag was in use at last since 1966, probably earlier and was abolished in 1975.

    Bad Salzig Borough Coat of Arms

    Shield parted per fess; above Argent an eagle issuant Sable, armed and tongued Gules; beneath Vert a fountain Argent.
    Meaning:
    The fountain is symbolising the brine springs of the borough. Spa and orchardry, especially cherry trees, had been the most important local business lines. The springs were first mentioned in the 18th century. Salzig gained the title of a spa (German: Bad) in 1925. The eagle is a differentiation of the one-headed imperial eagle and is alluding to the fact that Salzig belonged to the so called "Realm of Boppard" (German: Bopparder Reich), an entity under direct imperial rule, until 1306.
