The heraldic achievement depicted in this photo represents the Coat of arms of Weissenfels, Sachsen-Anhalt, Germany. Heraldry in Germany has its roots around the year 800 when emperor Charlemagne established the eagle as the symbol of the empire. A heraldic achievement contains multiple components like a shield, supporters, crest, and motto. The most important one is the shield, also called escutcheon, on which we can see the coat of arms as a central element. Also, we can see the coat of arms on a surcoat or a tabard.
