Origin/meaning
The arms of Malbork show a fortified city gate with three towers.
The oldest known seal of the city dates from the 14th century and already shows a fortified city wall. In this case with a closed gate and on the middle tower a small shield with the cross of the Teutonic Knights, who ruled the city at the time. Another seal, known from 1399-1446 only shows the gate, not the small shield. On a late 15th century seal the gate is already placed in a shield and again with the small shield with the cross.
From the 16th century until 1772 the seals show the coat of arms always without a small shield. Only when the town became part of Prussia in 1772 the seals showed the crowned coat of arms with the Prussian eagle as supporter. In the late 19th century the city used two small shields, the Prussian eagle on the main tower and the Teutonic cross in the gate. After 1945 the Prussian eagle disappeared and until the 1980s the city used only the Teutonic cross on the main tower. In the early 1990s the cross was replaced by the Polish eagle on the main tower and presently the city uses the arms without any additional shield.
