Origin/meaning
Seesen received city rights in 1428 from Duke Otto von Braunschweig-Lüneburg. The oldest seal is slightly older, dating from the early 15th century. The seal already shows the lion from the arms of the Dukes of Braunschweig, with a canting water-lily (Seerose) leaf. All later seals and images show the same composition, even though the shape of both the lion and the leaf differ considerably during the centuries.
 Seal from around 1900 |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
