The first (above left) arms were officially granted in 1956 and are based on the oldest known seal of the town, dating from the early 14<sup>th</sup> century. The seal showed the lion of [[Jülich]], placed on a shield and flanked by a star and a fleur-de-lis on both sides of the shield. In the next seal, dating from 1543 the stars and the fleur-the-lis are added to the shield itself. The stars and fleur-de-lis are probably derived from the local celebration of the St. Mary.
