Ziesar Coat of Arms

Shield Gules two keys Or in cross with the key pits pointing upwards and to the sinister edge.
Meaning:
The arms already had been granted in the 10th century. It had been the personal arms of Bishop Dietrich of Brandenburg and the arms of the bishopric as well. A seal from the 14th century displayed the same pattern. But the position of the keys changed. A version from the 18th century displays the keys in saltire. Hupp displayed a red shield with silver keys .(see Otto Hupp: "Deutsche Ortswappen", Bremen 1925). The keys are also attributes of St. Peter, the patron saint of the bishopric.
