History
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]
