Schoonhoven is one of the older cities in the county of Holland. When the city rights were granted is unknown, probably at the end of the 13th or beginning of the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The town was founded by Jan van der Lede, who built a castle near the present town. In 1280 the count of Holland, Floris V, granted the village and estate to Nicolaes van Cats. In 1281 the bisshop of Utrecht granted freedom of some taxes. This also means that the town moved from Holland to Utrecht. Schoonhoven was a border town and the counts of Holland and the bishops of Utrecht were more or less continuously at war. | Schoonhoven is one of the older cities in the county of Holland.

There has been much dispute about the colours of the lions. In 1816 the arms were granted with the red lion in the first quarter. This was either a mistake by the painter at the [http://www.hogeraadvanadel.nl Hoge Raad van Adel] (registry office), or by the town council. Unfortunately the original drawing put forward by the town council is lost. There are some historical pictures showing the red lion in the first quarter (all from the 17<sup>th</sup> century), but there are more and older pictures with the black lion in the first quarter. Also, the original Holland-Henegouwen arms show the black lion in the first quarter (see f.e. [[Rotterdam]]). The town decided in 1932 to change the colours to the original colours. | There has been much dispute about the colours of the lions.
