Homberg received city rights before 1231 and the oldest known seal dates from 1246. The seal shows a lion, but colours are not known. A second seal, known since 1239 but younger in design, shows the striped lion of Hessen. | Homberg received city rights before 1231 and the oldest known seal dates from 1246.
