The arms are based on the oldest known seal of the city, dating from 1318. The city was founded by the neighbouring convent, and the seal was based on that of the convent. The seal showed in a Gothic-style church the two local patron saints, St. Vitus (Veit) and St. Mary. On the older seals also the Bishop of Paderborn was often shown in the base between the two saints. The city historically belonged to the State of Paderborn. | The arms are based on the oldest known seal of the city, dating from 1318.
