Origin/meaning

The arms with the Agnus Dei were already used on the seal of the island in 1280. Ever since the lamb has been the symbol for the island and its capital, Visby.

The arms were adopted as provincial arms when Gotland became Swedish in 1645. They are also use by the Region Gotland municipality.
