Shield Or with base Vert an eradicated oak proper, under its crown at dexter a sinister facing nobleman dressed Vert with sleeves and trousers Gules and handing a chalice Argent to a crowned lady dressed Azure with veil Argent.
Meaning:
The oldest city seal from around 1360 displayed a tree flanked by two persons dressed in long garments with undefinable gender. It is assumed that it might be the visitation, the visit of St.Mary, who was pregnant with Jesus, to Elizabeth, who was pregnant with John the Baptist (Luke 1:39-56). Later the interpretation changed and referred to the following episode. Dietrich the Oppressed (1162 – 1221), later Margrave of Meißen in 1200 welcomes his sister Adela. In the struggle about the German throne Dietrich had been a supporter of the Staufen kin, while King Ottokar of Böhmen, the husband of Adela, who since 1198 supported the Welfen kin and casted out his wife two years later.
