The oldest seal dates from the same time and shows the Abbot of Corvey, as the city at the time was ruled by the Corvey Abbey. When the city became part of Waldeck in the 15<sup>th</sup> century, the seals showed arms with the patron saint of Corvey, St. Justinius with the flame, on top of a star. The star is taken from the arms of Waldeck. The arms remained unchanged until the 19<sup>th</sup> century, when the saint was replaced by the local patron saint, St. John and the Holy Lamb. | ||
