A jointly used seal from the turn of the 17th to the 18th century has been handed down for the Brandenburg offices of Dietenhofen and Bonnhof, in which the coat of arms with the blowing man can be seen. He stands for the no longer understood place name, which was derived from "Düten", ie bubbles. This also explains the legend in connection with the coat of arms: Empress Kunigunde was lost and the night watchman's blowing brought her back on the right track. In fact, the place name is derived from the personal name Dieto. In 1858, King Maximilian II approved the continuation of the seal image as a coat of arms.de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Wappen_Dietenhofen.svg
