The oldest seal of the city is known from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and shows a rather typical castle. When in the 15<sup>th</sup> century the Duchy of Luxembourg became a possession of the Dukes of Burgundy, the seal was replaced. The new seal shows a city gate with in the gate the arms of the Dukes of Burgundy. The counter seal showed a shield with the arms of the oldest Dukes of Luxembourg (see the National Arms for the explanation). Later seals both show the lion and the gate with the Burgundy arms. | The oldest seal of the city is known from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and shows a rather typical castle.
