The arms show a boar, which is derived from the word Vor, or a lean piglet. The boar probably was used ad a symbol for the city already in the 15<sup>th</sup> century, but the oldest known seal dates from the 17<sup>th</sup> century. The seal showed the boar on a filed (Felde) and the arms thus have not changed since. | The arms show a boar, which is derived from the word Vor, or a lean piglet.
