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. From 1513 the great seal of the city shows an angel, holding the shield of Brandenburg. In the 1920, Hupp showed this composition as arms for the city (see below).
