Rinteln received city rights in 1239 from Count Adolf IV of Schaumburg-Holstein. The oldest seal dates from the second half of the 13<sup>th</sup> century and shows the arms of the Counts of Schaumburg-Holstein, the Nesselblatt, or nettle-leaf. Later seals show already the above combination with the Nesselblatt in a gate above waves, the latter symbolising the Weser river. Although all seals show the same composition, the size and shape of the different elements has changed often during the centuries. | Rinteln received city rights in 1239 from Count Adolf IV of Schaumburg-Holstein.
