  • Rechts (heraldisch links) der Bär des Hl. Korbinian, Schutzpatron des Bistums München-Freising, aus dem Freisinger .
  • Unten (heraldisch unten) eine Jakobsmuschel, die für die Pilgerreise steht. Sie bezieht sich auf eine Legende über den Kirchenvater Augustinus. Die Muschel fand sich auch im des ehem. Schottenklosters St. Jacob in Regensburg, in dem Benedikt XVI. seine Laufbahn als Priester begann.

Hinter dem schild befinden sich die gekreuzten Schlüssel des Petrus, die für den Papst als Stellvertreter Gottes auf Erden stehen. Ein zusätzliches Element ist das Pallium, eine Art Stola, die von römisch-katholischen Metropoliten über dem Messgewand getragen wird und das in diesem Fall den Papst als Erzbischof und Metropolit von Rom kennzeichnet.

Als erster Papst der Neuzeit verzichtete Benedikt XVI. auf die Tiara im und wählte statt dessen die Bischofsmitra.
