The arms are canting, the name means Wood-Chapel. The chapel first appears on the oldest seal of the city, dating from 1581. A later, 17<sup>th</sup> century seal also shows only a chapel. In rolls of arms from the 17<sup>th</sup> century the arms,, however, are shown as a chapel among trees. The composition on the shield thus differed from the composition on the seal. The arms were slightly changed in the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, but have otherwise not been changed. | The arms are canting, the name means Wood-Chapel.
