Origin/meaning
The arms are granted in 1935 and were slightly changed in shape and re-confirmed in 1952.
The arms are mainly based on the oldest seal of the city, which is known since the late 13th century. This seal showed a gate with two towers. Between the towers the so-called lion-monument in Braunschweig, built in 1166. The lion in the monument is taken from the Welfen dynasty, at the time Dukes of Braunschweig, and who also ruled Uslar.
A later seal, known from 1642 shows the same composition. The colours are known from the early 18th century, when also the small shield with the V (or Roman U) appears. At the time the towers were no longer church towers.
