The oldest seal of the city dates from 1300 and already showed the two candles and a mountain, which are a canting symbol (lights-mountain). All later seals and images until 1962 show the same composition of candles and mountain, see the image of [[Otto Hupp|Hupp]] (1920s) below. | The oldest seal of the city dates from 1300 and already showed the two candles and a mountain, which are a canting symbol (lights-mountain).
