The arms show the legendary Phoenix rising from the fire. The first known seal of the town dates from the early 19<sup>th</sup> century and shows in a quartered shield the Phoenix in the second and third quarter.

In the middle of the 19<sup>th</sup> century the lion was removed, but the colours were not officially determined until 1932 after the granting of the city rank in 1929. | The arms show the legendary Phoenix rising from the fire.
