The sheet of paper in the lower part of the first arms indicates the importance of the paper industry since 1582. The more recent metal industry is symbolised by the hammer held by the lion. After the merger with Bensberg, the sheet of paper was replaced by the deer's head from Bensberg. The hammer was also removed. The historical importance of Berg was emphasised by the addition of the bar, which is taken from the oldest arms of the Counts of Berg. | The sheet of paper in the lower part of the first arms indicates the importance of the paper industry since 1582.
