The name 'het Wapen van Leiden' goes back to those days when stage coaches were still frequenting the route between the City of Leiden and the Baltic States. This route passed through various Hanseatic towns and served to sell cloth manufactured in Leiden. However, passengers were transported along with the goods. This necessitated locations for unharnessing the horses where the cloth could be sold and passengers could spend the night. Tradition has it that there were several such unharnessing locations named 'het Wapen van Leiden' along this route.
