Wappen von Drolshagen/Arms (crest) of Drolshagen

The anchor and arrow are the symbols of St. Clement, patron saint of the city. The church seals showed the saint with the cross and arrow, the seals of the city showed only the symbols. The black and silver are the colours of the State of Köln, to which the city historically belonged.
