From the 16th century until 1772 the seals show the coat of arms always without a small shield. Only when the town became part of Prussia in 1772 the seals showed the crowned coat of arms with the Prussian eagle as supporter. In the late 19th century the city used two small shields, the Prussian eagle on the main tower and the Teutonic cross in the gate. After 1945 the Prussian eagle disappeared and until the 1980s the city used only the Teutonic cross on the main tower. In the early 1990s the cross was replaced by the Polish eagle on the main tower and presently the city uses the arms without any additional shield. | From the 16th century until 1772 the seals show the coat of arms always without a small shield.
