Origin/meaning
The oldest seal of Kwidzyn (until 1945 Marienwerder) dates from the 14th century and already shows the crosier and mitre, no cross. All later seals, dating from the 15th century also use the same arms, but now with the cross.
The meaning of the arms is not clear, but are most likely symbols for the power of the Bishops. The colours have changed during the years, als also a small Madonna was sometimes used inside the crosier (see images below).
The present arms are a modernised version of the old arms.
