Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Wappen der ehemaligen Gemeinde Birten: „In Rot eine goldene (gelbe) Lilienhaspel, belegt mit einem aufgerichteten silbernen (weißen) Schlüssel.“ Das Wappen basiert auf einem Schöffensiegel aus dem 15. Jahrhundert; dort war ein Brustbild des hl. Petrus (Schutzpatron der Birtener Kirche) in der oberen Hälfte und die Lilienhaspel in der unteren Hälfte zu sehen. Das neue Wappen zeigt nur noch das Attribut, den Schlüssel des hl. Petrus. Die Lilienhaspel symbolisiert die frühere Zugehörigkeit zum Herzogtum Kleve.
English: A shield gules with an esvarbuncle Or coated with a key Argent. The arms were officially granted on December 11, 1962. The arms are based on the 15th century seal of the village. The seal showed a divided shield with in the upper half the local patron saint, St. Peter, and in the lower half a half escarbuncle of the Duchy of Kleve. In the above arms the saint was replaced by his symbol, the key, which was placed on the escarbuncle.
