Origin/meaning
Münster became a city in the early 13th century. The first seal shows a gate with the patron saint of the city, St. Paul.
The arms do not appear in official seals before 1535, although in a seal of the Antonius hospital from 1368 it is shown. The origin of the colours is not known. In the 15th century two griffins were used as supporters, later two lions were used. At present there are no supporters used.
