Origin/meaning
Trier was already an important city in the Roman times and the seat of a bishop in the early Middle Ages. The patron saint of the city is St. Peter. The oldest known seal of Trier dates from 1113 shows a city wall with a gate. In the gate the figure of Christ is placed between St. Peter and St. Eucharius. In the 14th century only St. Peter is used on the seals. All later seals show only St. Peter in different positions.
 The seal from the 12th century |
The arms of the city, on the other hand, only showed a red cross on a white field, the arms of the State of Trier. To the arms two lions were added as supporters in 1337. Only in the last century the arms were replaced by the figure of St. Peter taken from the seals. The cross of the State of Trier are widely used, see also the arms of Rheinland-Pfalz.
