History edit

The first historical record of the Zaremba coat of arms appears on the shield of Thomas II Zaremba, prince-bishop of Nysa, in 1270 CE. In the 12th century, the Zaremba clan itself founded the town and endowed the church of Tuliszkow.[2] Tuliszkow would become the seat of the Zaremba clan and in 1450, Mikolaj Zaremba, castellan of Leczyca, built the St. Vitus church, which still stands today.[3]

The Zaremba coat of arms is mentioned by Romain Gary in his novel Promise at dawn.[4]
