Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on December 13, 1911 and changed on August 13, 1976.
The arms from 1911.
The old arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, which is known since 1415. The city gate symbolises the fortified character of the city. In the gate stands St. Peter, the patron saint of the State of Köln, to which the city belonged until 1802. The black and white colours are also derived from the arms of the State of Köln, a black cross in a silver field.
In 1700 the arms are shown with a caterpillar in the base and as a crest, see below. The meaning thereof is not known, although it has been mentioned that it refers to the processionary caterpillars that one ruined the forests around the city. The legend was deemed not historical and in 1911 the caterpillar was not included in the arms.
The cross in the new arms is the cross of the State of Köln. The eight balls represent the eight former municipalities that now form the city of Warstein.
