Pratteln was in the early Middle Ages a possession on the St. Alban abbey in Basel, but during the 13th and 14<sup>th</sup> century most of the village and surroundings became a possession of the Lords von Eptingen. The family ruled the village until 1525 when it was acquired by the city of Basel. <br/> | Pratteln was in the early Middle Ages a possession on the St. Alban abbey in Basel, but during the 13th and 14<sup>th</sup> century most of the village and surroundings became a possession of the Lords von Eptingen.

Pratteln had no historical seals or arms. The only village symbol is a rose or other 8-petalled flower, which is used in a book from 1678. Whether it was the actual symbol or simply a decoration is not known. In 1928 the local council thus decided to adopt the arms of the Lords of Eptingen as its arms. To avoid confusion with the arms of the castle and family of Eptingen, the black bordure was added in 1938. | Pratteln had no historical seals or arms.
