Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on in 1910 to Deustch Wilmersdorf and again on October 3, 1955 with the mural crown of Berlin.

The arms are based on the arms of the former Lords of Wilmersdorff, in slightly different colours. The Lords of Wilmersdorff had their castle in the area until 1802 when the family became extinct.
