The oldest known seal of the town shows a shield with the initials ST, a star and the deer antler from Württemberg, and dates from the early 18<sup>th</sup> century. The use of the letters and the deer antler is known since the late 17<sup>th</sup> century, when the combination was used on border stones. <br/> | The oldest known seal of the town shows a shield with the initials ST, a star and the deer antler from Württemberg, and dates from the early 18<sup>th</sup> century.
