Origin/meaning

The current arms were adopted in 1995 and replaced the field semy of fleur-de-lys with three fleur-de-lys en pal. The fleur-de-lys refer to the French Royal arms, as the city had royal privileges since 1322. The composition also appeared on the seal from 1322.

The dragon refers to a local legend.

Literature: Louis, 1949
