===Origin/meaning===
 
====Origin/meaning====
The oldest known seal of the city dates from the early 13<sup>th</sup> century and showed the three towers. In the 14<sup>th</sup> century the seals sometimes showed three swans, which were falsely derived from the idea that the name was derived from Cygnea, or swan-city. The above arms first appeared in 1560.
