Meaning:
The region of around Havelberg was conquered in the early 10th century by German King Heinrich I. His son Otto I the Great established the Bishoprics of Havelberg and Brandenburg probably in 948. Slavian tribes regained control over the region. Finally they were defeated in 1136. In 1160 Havelberg was called a city under the sovereignty of the Margraves of Brandenburg. The bishop had hardly any rights. Even the district around the cathedral was a condominium of the bishops and the margraves. The latter gained complete control in 1305 as an imperial fiefdom. In 1310 a city hall was mentioned and the status of a city according to the Magdeburg city rights pattern. In 1359 the city became a member of the Hanseatic League. In 1571 the Bishopric of Havelberg was incorporated into the Electorate of Brandenburg. The oldest seal from around 1300 displayed alluding to the local bishopric a cathedral with four towers with the impending eagle in order to stress the sovereignty of the margraves. The oldest arms are from the same time. The current pattern developed in 1627 and has never been changed since then.
