===Origin/meaning===
The city was founded as Swinemünde by King Frederik the Great in the 18<sup>th</sup> century. The oldest seal dates from the same time and has no heraldic composition; it shows a man standing on a hill and overlooking the harbour with a ship sailing into the harbour. In 1765 the local council orders a new seal with the griffin of Pommerania holding an anchor, symbolising the importance of the harbour. All later seals until the early 20<sup>th</sup> century all show the same arms. The only difference is the use of a silver or golden anchor during the years.
