The town became a city in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, and the first seal dates from 1309. It showed two crosses, the symbol for St. Peter, the patron saint of Minden; the city at the time was ruled by the Bishops of Minden. In the first decade of the 14<sup>th</sup> century the Dukes of Lüneburg acquired the city. The second known seal, dating from 1318, thus showed the lion of the Dukes of Lüneburg. Ever since the city uses the lion, at first passant, and since the 17<sup>th</sup> century in the present shape. | The town became a city in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, and the first seal dates from 1309.
