The Austrian shield already appeared on the second seal of the city of Münster, dating from 1417. The older seal only showed a church with a chalice. The church probably symbolised the St. Trudpert Abbey, the chalice was taken from the arms of the Lords of Staufen, who ruled the city from 1277-1602 as vassals for the Dukes of Austria. The city was destroyed in the late 14<sup>th</sup> century and lost its importance. Presently it is the village of Rotte Münster.
