Origin/meaning

Walsdorf and Zilsdorf were historically a possession of the DUkes of Aremberg. They used three medlar flowers in their arms, which was taken as part of the arms of Walsdorf. The ring and the fleur-de-lys are the symbols of the two patron saints, Arnulphus for Walsdorf (ring) and St. Anthony of Padua (Zilsdorf, fleur-de-lys).
