Herne was an unimportant village until the mining and industry started to develop in the last century. The village received city rights in 1897 and in July 30, 1900 the arms were granted by King Wilhelm II of Prussia. No arms or seals are known for Herne prior to 1900. In 1900 the arms were topped by a mural crown, which was officially abandoned on November 30, 1937, when new arms were granted. | |||
