The Moor's head is an heraldic charge associated with Freising, Germany. : A legend states that while travelling to Rome, Saint Corbinian's pack horse was killed by a bear. He commanded the bear to carry the load. Once he arrived, he released it from his service, and it returned to Bavaria. The implication is that "Christianity tamed and domesticated the ferocity of paganism and thus laid the foundations for a great civilisation in the Duchy of Bavaria." At the same time, Corbinian's bear, as God's beast of burden, symbolizes the weight of office that Benedict carried. : The symbolism of the scallop shell is multiple; one reference is to Saint Augustine. While a doctoral candidate in 1953, Ratzinger wrote a thesis titled The People and the House of God in St Augustine's Doctrine of the Church, and therefore had a personal connection with the thought of this Doctor of the Church.

Pope Benedict XVI's coat of arms was designed by then Archbishop Andrea Cordero Lanza di Montezemolo soon after the papal election. Benedict's coat of arms omitted the papal tiara, which traditionally appears in the background to designate the pope's position as a worldly ruler like a king, replacing it with a simple mitre, emphasising his spiritual authority.
