The history of Falkenberg is, to a smaller or larger extent, known since the late 13th century, when the town starts to appear in written sources. The town might have taken over the position as a local power center from a location in . It was then Danish, and would remain so up till 1645, with some minor interruptions. From the 14th century and on to the Northern Seven Years' War (1563-1570) a second town, Ny-Falkenberg (New Falkenberg) was located close to the town. The fort from which the fiefdom had been run was destroyed by Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson's troops in 1434, and would not be rebuilt, hence marking the end of the fiefdom. The town gained its market rights in 1558.

  • Falkenberg började träda fram i historiens ljus i slutet av 1200-talet, varifrån de första skriftliga beläggen finns. Staden kom möjligen att ta över som lokalt maktcentrum efter en tidigare plats i Stafsinge socken. Den var då, liksom övriga Halland dansk. Från 1300-talet och fram till nordiska sjuårskriget fanns även staden Ny-Falkenberg. Den borg varifrån Falkenbergs slottslän styrdes förstördes av Engelbrekts trupper 1434 och kom inte att byggas upp, vilket gjorde att slottslänet försvann. Det första kända privilegiebrevet för staden är från 1558. (sv)

  • The history of Falkenberg is, to a smaller or larger extent, known since the late 13th century, when the town starts to appear in written sources. The town might have taken over the position as a local power center from a location in . It was then Danish, and would remain so up till 1645, with some minor interruptions. From the 14th century and on to the Northern Seven Years' War (1563-1570) a second town, Ny-Falkenberg (New Falkenberg) was located close to the town. The fort from which the fiefdom had been run was destroyed by Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson's troops in 1434, and would not be rebuilt, hence marking the end of the fiefdom. The town gained its market rights in 1558. Better infrastructure in the latter part of the 19th century, meant that the town break a long period of stagnation and see some substantial growth. The industrialisation process started at the late 19th/early 20th century. In the 20th century the town has continued to growth, both in terms of population and size. For the first time it has come to include areas on the southern strand of river Ätran. (en)

Det första kända privilegiebrevet för staden är från 1558. Genom förbättrad kommunikation under den senare halvan av 1800-talet började staden växa. Industrialiseringen påbörjades kring sekelskiftet. Staden växte upp på den norra sidan av Ätran, men kom under 1900-talet att även sprida sig till den södra sidan. (sv)
