Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of the city dates from 1295 and shows a city wall with two towers. Between the towers the Margrave of Brandenburg, shown as a knight, appears. He holds in the one hand a spear, in the other a small shield with the eagle of Brandenburg.
The second seal is known from 1394 and shows the above arms with the eagle and stars. The eagle probably is the eagle of Brandenburg, the meaning of the stars is not known.
