Origin/meaning

Wesselburen received city rights in 1899 and the above arms were granted on January 22, 1901.

The arms simply show the landscape and a typical farm of the area. Previously the city used a seal with its patron saint, St. Bartholomew.

The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925
