![[Komárno Coat of Arms]](../images/s/sk)komar.jpg)
from Ralf Hartemink's
site.
The arms first appear in the seal of the city from the first half of
the 15th century, and are a typical image for a city. To distinguish the
composition from those of other cities the two stars were added. The arms
were officially granted in 1745, with the castle now placed on an island
between the two rivers Danube and Waag. The arms have not changed since.
