| Object history |
Deutsch: Vöhringen erhielt 1977 die Stadtrechte und besteht aus vier Ortsteilen, die zuvor selbstständige Gemeinden waren: Vöhringen, Illerberg, Illerzell und Thal. Das ganze Gebiet war Teil der Herrschaft Wullenstetten, die seit 1507 im Besitz der Fürsten von Fugger war. Die Lilie stammt aus deren Familienwappen. Die Bogenwelle steht stellvertretend für die Iller und die ehemaligen Gemeinden Illerberg und Illerzell. Das Mühlrad symbolisiert die Industrialisierung im 19. Jahrhundert und die zahlreichen Wassermühlen entlang des Flusses.
English: Vöhringen gained city rights in 1977 and consists of four parts, which had been independent municipalities before. Those are Vöhringen proper, Illerberg, Illerzell and Thal. The whole area was part of the Lordship of Wullenstetten, which was owned by the Princes of Fugger since 1507. The fleur-de-lis is taken from their family arms. The bend wavy is representing the Iller River and the former municipalities of Illerberg and Illerzell as well. The millwheel is symbolising the industrialisation in the 19th century and the numerous watermills alongside the river. |
