Origin/meaning

The arms show a millstone, as the town was known about its millstone industry as well as the many mills in the area. The stone already appears in the oldest seal of the city, which dates from 1235. The arms have never changed since.

In the 17th century the arms were augmented with a helmet with a church as crest and two lions as supporters. Derived from this was a proposal for new arms in 1939 with only the church in the arms and not the stone. This was not approved.

The city currently uses the church crest, but not the supporters, see image below.
