Deutsch: „Das Stadtwappen, genehmigt lt. Urkunde vom 22. August 1892, zeigt in dem waagerecht gestellten geteilten dreieckigen Schild oben den halbierten nach links springenden limburgisch-bergischen Löwen in rot auf silbernem (weißem) Grund; unten im schwarzen Felde das silberne (weiße) Weberschiffchen mit heraushängendem silbernen (weißen) Faden. Den Schild krönt eine rote Mauer mit dem Toreingang und drei Mauertürmen.“ Die Symbole des Wappen entstammen einem Siegel aus dem Jahre 1555. Es zeigt den Bergischen Löwen sowie ein Weberschiffchen, welches für die Textilindustrie in der Stadt steht.
English: „The arms show in the upper part the lion from the arms of the Counts of Berg, who bought the area in 1260 from the Counts of Hückeswagen. The lower part is a symbol for the textile industry, which has been of importance for the town since the late Middle Ages. The combination of lion and spindle appears first in a seal from 1555.“
