Meschede received city rights from Dietrich II von Moers, Archbishop of Köln, in 1457. The oldest seal dates from 1488 and already shows the present arms. The arms are a combination of the eagle of the Lords of Arnsberg and the cross of the [[Köln (State)|State of Köln]]. The area was part of the County Arnsberg until 1368, when it became part of Köln. The arms have thus never changed since. | Meschede received city rights from Dietrich II von Moers, Archbishop of Köln, in 1457. The oldest seal dates from 1488 and already shows the present arms.
