The oldest seal of Malmö is known from 1421 but is likely to be (much) older. It shows a church with a star and crescent (symbols for eternity) and on the base some waves (for the sea). The church probably represents the main church at the time. | The oldest seal of Malmö is known from 1421 but is likely to be (much) older. It shows a church with a star and crescent (symbols for eternity) and on the base some waves (for the sea). The church probably represents the main church at the time. A second seal of the city probably dates from the 13th century, but is only known from 1417. It shows a cog ship, indicating the importance of trading. | ||
The seal with the ship also shows the oldest name of the city, "Sigillum der stad Ellenbogen", whereas the other seal states "S(igillum) Villanorum de Malmøghæ", indicating that the seal with the ship is the oldest seal of the city. Both seals have been used by the city for several centuries. | |||
