The Arsenal Logo: A Rich History
An Introduction to the Arsenal FC Logo
Arsenal Football Club is a professional football team based in London, England. The club was founded in 1886 and has a long and storied history. The Arsenal logo is one of the most iconic in all of football, and it has undergone several changes over the years.
The VCC Crest
The original Arsenal logo was the VCC crest, which was adopted in 1888. The crest featured the letters "VCC" (for "Victoria Concordia Crescit", which is Latin for "Victory Through Concord") and three cannons. The cannons were a reference to the club's founding in Woolwich, which was a major center for armaments production.
The Arsenal Crest
In 1922, the club adopted a new logo, which became known as the Arsenal crest. The crest featured the letters "AFC" (for "Arsenal Football Club") and a cannon. The cannon was a nod to the club's history in Woolwich, and it has remained a central part of the Arsenal logo ever since.
The Modern Arsenal Logo
The current Arsenal logo was adopted in 1992. The logo features the club's name in a stylized font, and it is surrounded by a shield. The shield is divided into three sections, each of which represents a different part of the club's history. The left section features the VCC crest, the middle section features the Arsenal crest, and the right section features a cannon. The current logo is a modern and stylish take on the club's classic crest, and it has helped to make Arsenal one of the most recognizable brands in all of football.
