The tower in which they were found is first recorded in 1406 and as an armoury around 1485. The sale of this group was organised by Johann Haupt, a city councillor, through the Bozen (Bolzano) art dealer Alois Überbacher (1832-1897) to the Munich antiquarian Josef Ferdinand Spengel (died 1904). An inventory of the town of Klausen from the end of the 15th century, which is no longer extant, records a number (either fifteen or fifty) large shields and eighteen small shields. The shields are decorated with three variations of the arms shown on the present shield, which have been variously attributed, without basis, to Klausen, Waldeck, the Lordship of Sternberg, the Swabian Society of St. George, and the Knights of the Golden Spur. Their use has been attributed to the mercenaries Duke Sigismund brought to Klausen during the third quarter of the 15th Century, the Swabian League and also a contingent equipped by Emperor Maximilian I. See Profanter 2019 pp. 275 - 302 and Kaiser, Emmerich and Profanter 2019, pp. 303-325.
