Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1951 and combine elements of the older seals and arms of the city.

Uelzen became a city in the early 13th century and the oldest seal dates from 1240. It shows a three-towered gate. In 1266 the city used a seal with a gate and the lion of the Welfen dynasty. The next seal showed a lion on each of the two towers of the gate. Around 1600 a lion between two trees appears in a shield on the secret seals. These were canting, as the name at the time was Löwenwalde (lion-wood).

The present arms thus combine the gate with the arms from 1600.
