The oldest known seal of the city dates from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and already shows a gate with the lion. Although the actual size and shape of the gate/castle varied widely, the basic composition remained the same. The lion is the lion of [[Meissen]]. | The oldest known seal of the city dates from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and already shows a gate with the lion.
