The resolution regarding the coat of arms of the Pomeranian Voivodeship was taken on by the Sejmik of the Pomeranian Voivodship in Gdańsk.
On a yellow background, the image of a black Griffin of Pomeranian-Wendish origin, with raised wings and a red tongue out of the mouth.
The first example of the coat of arms is a 16th-century image of the griffin, which is in the presbytery of the Oliwa Cathedral.
The image of the black griffin looking towards the right, on a yellow background, is also known for being the coat of arms of Kashubians.Therefore, these two coats of arms are often identified; according to some sources, as being one and an identical coat of arms.
