Mannheim received city rights in 1606 and 1652, but the village had its own court and seals already in the early 16<sup>th</sup> century. The oldest known seal dates from 1510 and shows the lion of the Pfalz and the arms of the Wittelsbach family, who, at the time ruled the Pfalz. Mannheim belonged to the Pfalz. The arms remained unchanged until the early 18<sup>th</sup> century, when the diamonds were replaced by the so-called wolf-iron. This symbol was used as a village and city symbol on border stones, but not as arms. The arms were officially granted in 1896. | Mannheim received city rights in 1606 and 1652, but the village had its own court and seals already in the early 16<sup>th</sup> century.
