Object history
English: Coat of arms of the Danish city Viborg based on a seal known since 1355. The style however suggests an early 13th century origin. The origin of the two figures dressed as Roman senators is unknown. It has been postulated that the figures might be saints but it is more likely that they are judges or senators as Viborg has been the main court site of Jutland since ancient times.
Dansk: Viborgs byvåben baseret på segl kendt siden 1355. Stilen tyder dog på at motivet har sin oprindelse i det tidlige 13. århundrede. Det er ukendt, hvad betydningen af de to personer, klædt som romerske senatorer er. Det er blevet foreslået at det skulle være helgener, men det er mere sandsynligt, at der er tale om dommere eller rådmænd, da Viborg har været Jyllands vigtigste retssæde siden gammel tid.
