===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were officially granted on May 12, 1792 and re-granted on June 19, 2002. | |||
The arms should refer to growth of the town (laurel) and justice for citizens (sword). | |||
The arms | |||
In early 20th century another variant was used due to the inexact description of historian Jan Obst (the original was not available at the time): without base, with a laurel branch instead of a tree, and with counterchanged positions of the laurel and sword. | |||
