German | In Blau ein goldener Anker, zwei silberne, schräg gekreuzte, gestürzte Schwerter mit goldenen Griffen überdeckend und mit den Spitzen verschränkt.
Origin/meaningThe arms were officially granted on July 7, 1935. Solingen became a city in the early 15th century. The city rights were granted by the Dukes of Jülich. The oldest seals, known since 1468, show the patron saint, St. Clement or the lion of Jülich. In the 17th century the present arms appear (oldest known image from 1670). The saint is replaced by his symbol, the anchor. The swords symbolise the local iron industry, which already in the 17th century was famous for its swords and knives. The large arms of the city, which are rarely used, if at all, have two wolves as supporters and a mural crown. The city only uses the mural crown.
