===Origin/meaning=== | |||
Riedlingen was founded around 1250 by Count Wolfrat von Veringen and received city rights in 1334. From 1291-1805 the city was an Austrian possession, since 1805 it is part of Württemberg. | |||
=== | |||
The oldest seal of the city, dating from the late 13<sup>th</sup> century shows two spades and a lion in a shield. The spades are a canting symbol; in those days the city's name was Rudelingen (Ruder=spades). The lion is the lion of Habsburg, Dukes of Austria in the 13th century. The arms have basically not changed since, only in the late 15<sup>th</sup> century the spades were placed on the Austrian arms. Furthermore, until the 18<sup>th</sup> century often only the spades on the Austrian bar were used. The lion was later restored. | |||
