===Origin/meaning===
The arms were granted on July 16, 1938 and again on February 10, 1976.


====Official blazon====
The arms are a combination of the arms of the former territories to which (parts) of the district belonged. The upper part shows the chequered bar of the [[County of Mark]]. The castle represents the Homburg castle, owned by the Princes of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. The lion is the lion of the County of Berg, to which a large part of the district belonged. In 1938 the lion was granted without the original blue tongue. This was corrected in 1978.
