Origin/meaning
Wildeshausen became a city in the early 13th century and the oldest seal dates from the same time. The seal shows already the same composition as the arms : the local church with the rose of the arms of Count Burghard of Oldenburg-Wildeshausen and St. Alexander, the patron saint of the city.
As both towers of the church were destroyed in 1214 and 1219, and the city became a possession of the city of Bremen in 1270, a new seal was used in the 14th century. It showed a similar composition, a single tower with St. Alexander in the gate, and the key of Bremen above the tower.
In the early 20th century the arms were devised and based on the oldest seal, as can be seen in the image below.
