Wappen von Angermund

Official blazon

(de) In Schwarz ein Bischof im goldenen Ornat und goldener Mitra mit goldenem Bischofsstab in der Linken, einem silbernen Heiligenschein und rotem Pallium. In der Rechten das Wappen der Grafen und Herzöge von Berg; ein blaubewehrter, roter, doppelschwänziger, steigender Löwe.

Origin/meaning

The arms are devised in 1938.

The arms are based on a seal of the city, dating from 1521, but probably older. It shows a bishop (it is unknown who it is, either St. Suitbert, St. Lambertus or bishop Engelbert of Köln) holding in his hand a shield with the lion of the Counts of Berg, who owned the area in the Middle Ages.
