The arms are canting, the old name of the city is Lewenstein (lion-stone). Although the city received city rights in 1374, no seals are known until the 17<sup>th</sup> century. This seal showed already the above composition. The colours originally seem to have been a silver double-tailed lion (Bohemia ?), later a black lion, taken from the arms of [[Meissen]], as the city was part of the Mark Meissen. When the above colours were adopted is not known. | The arms are canting, the old name of the city is Lewenstein (lion-stone).
