Origin/meaning
The arms show St. George, the patron saint of the city. The saint already appeared on the oldest known seals of the city, dating from the late 13th and early 14th century. All later seals show the saint, but only one, from 1666, shows the saint killing the dragon. The above arms are in use since 1913, earlier images have shown different colours.
The meaning of the small cross besides the saint is not known. It already appeared on the oldest seals.
