Lübbecke got city rights in 1279 by bishop Volkwin van Schwalenberg, bishop of Minden. The arms are a combination of the star taken from the arms of Schwalenberg and the crossed keys of St.Peter, the patron saint of the diocese of Minden. The oldest seals showed a bishop sitting on a throne under an arch. Above the arch the star was placed. Later seals, in the 14<sup>th</sup> century, show only the keys with the star. Initially the star was placed in a separate shield. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century the arms got the colours silver and red and the shield around the star was removed. The arms were first officially granted in 1909, see below. | Lübbecke got city rights in 1279 by bishop Volkwin van Schwalenberg, bishop of Minden.

After the merger in 1973 the city needed new arms. The new arms still show the star and keys, but now combined with the city gate as used on the medieval great seal of the city. | After the merger in 1973 the city needed new arms.
