Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on March 3, 1897.
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).
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 The arms on a special cancellation 1977 with Loches |
 Partnership with Loches and Saint Andrews (image from Facebook) |
