Merenberg was founded by the Lords of Merenberg in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, who granted the city rights in 1290 and ruled the city until 1328. The oldest seal dates from 1321, and shows a city wall, with the arms of the Lords of Merenburg, a St. Andrew's cross and 12 small crosses. The seals remained unchanged until 1816, when only a undetermined building was used. The above arms are nearly identical to the arms of the Lords of Merenburg and were officially granted in 1950. | Merenberg was founded by the Lords of Merenberg in the 13<sup>th</sup> century, who granted the city rights in 1290 and ruled the city until 1328.
