The counts of Veldenz founded a castle in Emichonen in 1115 and named themselves after the area (Von Veldenz). The town became a city in 1286 as a grant of King Rudolf of Habsburg. The counts of Veldenz ruled until 1444, when the county was incorporated in Pfalz-Zweibrücken. From 1543-1694 a branch of the Wittelsbach family (see also [[Bayern]]), who ruled the Pfalz since the 13<sup>th</sup> century, named themselves after Veldenz. Consequently the Wittelsbach arms were incorporated in the towns arms. | The counts of Veldenz founded a castle in Emichonen in 1115 and named themselves after the area (Von Veldenz).
