Deutsch: „Das Wappen zeigt einen silbernen (weißen), durch eine aufsteigende rote Spitze gespaltenen Schild, in dem linken weißen Feld einen grünen Eichbaum, in dem rechten weißen Feld einen schwarzen Schwan und auf dem roten Mittelfeld auf grünem Boden eine weiße Kirche. Auf dem oberen Schildrand liegt eine sandsteinfarbene dreitürmige Mauerkrone.“ Die Symbole des Wappens gründen den Ursprungsgemeinden der Stadt - Eich (Eichbaum), Schwanen (Schwan) und Wermelskirchen (Kirche). Die Farben symbolisieren die Zugehörigkeit zum Rheinland (grün-weiß), Preußen (schwarz-weiß) und Herzogtum Berg (rot-weiß). Die Mauerkrone steht für Stadtrechte, welche die Stadt seit 1871 besitzt.
English: „The colours of the three fields are taken from the three areas to which the municipality historically belonged; silver and green from the arms of the Prussian Rhineprovince, silver and black for Prussia, and red and silver for the County of Berg (in silver a red lion, armed blue). The three images represent the three (original) villages in 1897 : Eich (canting=oak), Schwanen (canting=swans) and Wermelskirchen (Kirche=church).“
