The lion is the lion of the Counts of Meissen, who acquired the city and surrounding territory 1374. The oldest seal shows the lion and the letter E for the city, since 1650 the lion holds a small tree. The tree probably was chosen as a symbol for the rebuilding of the city after the 30-years war. Later the E was restored and used in the arms until the 1950s. In 1960 the arms of 1650 were again adopted. | The lion is the lion of the Counts of Meissen, who acquired the city and surrounding territory 1374.
