Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1922.

The arms are based on the old seal of the town, dating from the 15^th century. A later seal, from 1597 shows the same composition. As no colours were known, the colours of the County Jülich were chosen, as the town historically belonged to Jülich.

Seal from around 1900
