The main economic activities in Barneveld historically were sheep farming, followed by tobacco culture. As sheep manure was needed for the tobacco, this was a logical combination. The oldest seal of the village dates from the 17<sup>th</sup> century and showed a tobacco plant. During the 18<sup>th</sup> century the importance of tobacco decreased and in 1795 a new seal was developed. The new seal was designed by two citizens and showed a composition which was based on the Revolutionary symbolism of the time. <br/> | The main economic activities in Barneveld historically were sheep farming, followed by tobacco culture.
