The city of Reus has a medieval origin: it was born in the 12<sup>th</sup> century, in the repopulation of the lands conquered to the Muslims. Reus was given its municipal charter around 1180. Since the 14<sup>th</sup> century, the rose has been the heraldic sign of the city, probably a canting sign. Later the keys of St. Peter (the local patron saint) were added to the arms, and in the 17<sup>th</sup> century the tiara (also referred to St. Peter, the first Pope) was also added. | The city of Reus has a medieval origin:it was born in the 12<sup>th</sup> century, in the repopulation of the lands conquered to the Muslims.
