Wiesensteig was the capital of the Counts of Helfenstein, who also granted the city rights in the middle of the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The oldest seal is known since 1482 and already shows the elephant from the arms of the Helfenstein dynasty, rising from a mountain. All later seals and arms show the same composition. | Wiesensteig was the capital of the Counts of Helfenstein, who also granted the city rights in the middle of the 14<sup>th</sup> century.
