Origin/meaning
The oldest known seal of Lund dates from the mid 13th century and already shows the wall with three towers. All later seals and arms show the same image. The arms were officially granted in 1913 and confirmed in 1975.
A city wall is a common symbol for medieval cities, but Lund never had a brick wall, only a wall made of sand and trees !
 The arms as shown by Liljeblad, 1878 |
 The arms in the Kaffe Hag album +/- 1935 |
Use of the arms:
 The arms on a roadsign on the municipal border |
 The arms on a sign on the city border |
 The arms on a waste bin in the city |
 The arms on a bus stop in the city |
 The arms on building in the city |
