LICH-STEINSTRASS

State : Nordrhein-Westfalen
District (Kreis) : Düren (until 1971 Jülich)
Incorporated into : 1972 Niederzier (destroyed and rebuilt in 1981 in Jülich)

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on ??

The villages of Lich and Steinstraß formed the municipality of Steinstraß, which was incorporated into Niederzier. Due to mining the villages were destroyed and relocated/resettled as part of Jülich between 1981-1991.

The arms show the cross of St. Andrew, the local patron saint, and a checquered field. The latter resembles the cobblestones on the old Roman road Jülich-Köln and symbolises the Steinstraß (stone-street) part of the name.
