===Origin/meaning=== | |||
Zülpich received city rights in 1254 from the Archbishops of Köln. The oldest seal showed St.Peter, the patron saint of Köln, standing on a gate. The second seal, known from 1270 shows the saint holding two crossed keys and a model of a city in his hands. The contra-seals however, show only the cross of the [[Köln (State)|State of Köln]]. | |||
After 1288 to the cross on the contra-seals a small shield with the arms of [[Jülich]] is added, as the town became a possession of the Dukes of Jülich. From the middle of the 17<sup>th</sup> century the city is known to use the present arms, which combine the cross of Köln and the keys of St. Peter. | After 1288 to the cross on the contra-seals a small shield with the arms of [[Jülich]] is added, as the town became a possession of the Dukes of Jülich.
