Summary[edit]

Description
English: The oldest seal dates from 1346 and shows a fleur de lis (from the arms of the Wachtendonk family) with a key (of St. Peter, the patron saint). Already in the second seal (used from 1382-1520) the fleur de lis is placed above a tower, probably representing the city. All later seals show the same combination. The arms thus never changed and were again granted on October 30, 1971 after the merger with Wankum.
Deutsch: Im goldenen (gelben) Feld ein aus dem unteren Schildrand wachsender zweigeschossiger roter Turm, wobei das untere Geschoss mit sechs, das obere Geschoss mit vier Zinnen versehen ist. Darüber schwebt eine rote Lilie.
