The oldest known seal of the city, which dates from the late 13<sup>th</sup> century, shows an Abbot on a throne with at his feet a shield with the three lilies rising from a hill. A later seal shows only the patron saint, and in the 17<sup>th</sup> century he was shown holding a banner with a cross. The above arms were adopted in the 19<sup>th</sup> century and combine the cross and the lilies. | ||
The combination of both first appears on a banner of the Abbey in 1300, but was never used before as arms of either the Abbey or the city.<br> | The combination of both first appears on a banner of the Abbey in 1300, but was never used before as arms of either the Abbey or the city.<br> | ||
