A weasel already appears on the first known seal, which dates from the early 13<sup>th</sup> century. The main image of the seal shows a gate with Emperor Heinrich VII and Count Theodor of Kleve. Under the gate the weasel is seen. In 1269 on a smaller seal only the weasel appears. Both the large and smaller seals remain similar until the 16<sup>th</sup> century. In the 14<sup>th</sup> century arms with three weasels are mentioned (these never appeared on the seals). Around 1600 the weasels are placed on the original arms of the counts of [[Kleve]]. | A weasel already appears on the first known seal, which dates from the early 13<sup>th</sup> century.
