Origin/meaning

The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, which is known from 1335, but which may be a few decades older. The second seal, which is slightly younger, is identical, except for the lily. The lily is most likely the symbol of the local monastery. The helmet and crest are those of the Dukes of Braunschweig-Lüneburg, who ruled the city in the early 14^th century.

The arms were not changed until the 18^th century, when the seals showed a crown capital letter G. This remained until 1901, when the present, historical, arms were granted.
