history

Isen was first awarded a coat of arms in 1548 by Emperor Charles V on the occasion of the confirmation of the fair privilege of 1438. In the original document, the legendary figure is called a siren and her clothes are described in detail.

Presumably the strange symbol was chosen because the place is named after the river Isen and the Renaissance period, based on ancient models, used to populate nature with mythical creatures. Seals with the coat of arms have been known since 1554. Until the 19th century, the colored reproductions kept to the letter of arms. In 1920 Otto Hupp depicted the siren differently for the first time in his book of arms, namely completely naked. The design that is valid today was designed in 1984 by Max Reinhart .

The government of Upper Bavaria approved the use of the new design as a coat of arms by the municipality by resolution of February 8, 1984.
