Schleiden was sometimes mentioned as a city in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, but there is no historical proof for city rights. The oldest known seal dates from the 14<sup>th</sup> century and shows a baldaquin under which two persons hold a shield with the lion of the Counts of Schleiden. The latter seals also show the same composition. The arms of the city, however, were identical to the arms of the counts, so without the supporters from the seal. | Schleiden was sometimes mentioned as a city in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, but there is no historical proof for city rights.
