History
The once small community Herrenberg was formed out of the hamlets "Mühlhausen" and "Raistingen", which were combinated in the 13th century, when Herrenberg was founded. In 1278, Herrenberg was first documented, although Pfalzgraf Rudolf von Tübingen already wrote in 1228 "castrum nostrum herrenberc" into a certificate. From 1276, the church building was started, which at the time, had two towers.
In the year 1276, Herrenberg was described as a fortified town with a market. Two years later, the town used its first official seal. Herrenberg then became the main town for the counts Palatine of Tübingen, known as "die Scherer". In 1382, the town was sold to Count Eberhard II (the Greiner) of Württemberg by the last Count Konrad II (the Scherer). Following this, Herrenberg became the main center for the nearby villages and was recognized as an official Württemberg town.
On the 5th of January in the year 1293, the church of Herrenberg was consecrated by Brother Boniface, the Bishop of Constance.
On February 6, 1347, Herrenberg underwent a division of the lordship, resulting in the establishment of Oberherrenberg and Unterherrenberg by the brothers Count Palatine Rudolf III and Conrad I. This division led to the creation of separate courts and town seals for each part.
