Stromberg received city rights in the 13<sup>th</sup> century from the Counts of the Pfalz, who had one of their residencies in the city. The oldest seal of the city is known from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and shows a quartered shield. The first and fourth quarter showed a chequered field, the second and third a crowned lion. The chequered field is derived from the arms of the Fauste von Stromberg family, the lion is the lion of the Pfalz. <br/> | Stromberg received city rights in the 13<sup>th</sup> century from the Counts of the Pfalz, who had one of their residencies in the city.
