Erbenheim received city rights in 1423, but never developed into a proper city. Nevertheless, the new city had a seal made in the middle of the 15<sup>th</sup> century, showing the arms of Nassau, with a saint, holding a palm branch and a tree. It is unknown which saint is depicted. The saint was used on all seals of the city/village until 1866, when the area became part of Prussia, when the shield of Nassau was removed.
