Wappen von Everswinkel

Official blazon

Im geteilten Schild oben in Rot die Vorderansicht einer silbernen (weißen) Kirche mit schwarzgedecktem Turm, unten in Silber (Weiß) einen rechtsgewandten schwarzen Eber unter einem schwarzen Sparren.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 15, 1962.

The upper half shows the front of the local church. The lower half is canting, showing a boar (Eber) and a chevron (from Winkel=hook, corner). The chevron is taken from the arms of the Lords von den Berge, the oldest known inhabitants of the local Borg castle.
