The image of this weapon remained the club’s main symbol in the following 17 seasons when the “western gun” was slightly changed and took shape in a new emblem with the Latin expression “Victoria Concordia Crescit.” The image has existed in this form from 1949 to the present day.ĭial Square was the club’s first name due to the eponymous park located nearby. Today the gunpoint is directed to the east again. At first, the barrel pictured on the Arsenal logo was directed to the east, then turned west. When the club moved to Highbury in 1913, the guns were left as a brand on the logo. For two years, the Arsenal played without a logo, and then they took the coat of arms of Woolwich, where guns were depicted.

The club was founded in the London area of Woolwich in 1886, where the Royal Arsenal, the Royal Artillery Regiment, and many military hospitals were located.
