German Family Crests and Coats of Arms

Germany has a rich history of family crests and coats of arms. Distinguising characteristics of German family crests include more than one crest and a duplication of the charges on the shield used on the crest as well.

Try the sites listed below to find your German family crest or German coat of arms.
