Forchheim received city rights before 1250. The oldest seal of the city is known since the late 13<sup>th</sup> century and already shows a shield with two fish. The fish are likely trout, as the city name was thought to be derived from Forchen (from Forellen or trout). | Forchheim received city rights before 1250.
