Weissenhorn received city rights in the end of the 13th or early 14<sup>th</sup> century from the Neuffen family. The oldest known seal dates from 1338 and is probably made under the reign of Berchtold von Neuffen, Count of Marstetten and Graisbach. The seal shows the three horns, as do all later seals. The arms have thus not changed since, except the position of the horns, which changed from facing right to the present facing left The colours are known since 1516 and have not changed since either. | Weissenhorn received city rights in the end of the 13th or early 14<sup>th</sup> century from the Neuffen family.
