The oldest seal of Treptow dates from the 19th century and shows a bear between some trees. In 1876 the above arms were adopted, which were based on the old seal. The bear is the bear from Berlin , the silver bend the Landwehrkanal channel and the trees symbolise the name Treptow, which supposedly means a forest.
