"Vil will fall under the roses and not everything is designed for the best in 1593": that's what the banner in the gate tower says.

Hiking

The Latin phrase sub rosa (literally "under the rose") means "under the seal of secrecy". It is evidently a translation into New Latin, as corresponding phrases are attested in some West Germanic languages well before the first known evidence of the Latin form in 1654[2], i.e. in early New Dutch ("onder de roose"), in Middle Low German ("under der rosen"), in Early New High German ("unter der rose") and in English ("under the rose," first attested in 1546).
