In 1623 the German Emperor granted the city the right to use the Imperial Eagle. Normally the shield would be divided or the original arms were placed on the eagle (see f.e. [[Aalen]] or, in Holland, [[Nijmegen]]). This never officially happened in Essen, although sometimes both arms are combined in a single shield in books and maps. The crown indicates the foundation of the freedom of the monastery (with the rank of Prince) in 852. | In 1623 the German Emperor granted the city the right to use the Imperial Eagle.
