Stade received city rights in the 13<sup>th</sup> century and was a possession of the Bishops of Bremen since 1180. The oldest great seal of the city dates from the 13<sup>th</sup> century and shows three towers. A smaller seal, also from the 13<sup>th</sup> century, shows only a key. The key is the symbol of St. Peter, patron saint of the State of [[Bremen]]. Coins struck in the city show since 1272 only the key as the symbol, but until the 17<sup>th</sup> century the key did not appear on the great seals of the city. | Stade received city rights in the 13<sup>th</sup> century and was a possession of the Bishops of Bremen since 1180.
