Rottenburg received town rights in 1378 and the first seal dates from the same time. The seal already showed a canting castle (Burg). The present arms are still based on the image on the first seal, even though the size and shape of the buildings has changed somewhat. All other seals and historical images also show similar castles. | Rottenburg received town rights in 1378 and the first seal dates from the same time.
