OSTERATH
State : Nordrhein-Westfalen
District (Kreis) : Neuss (until 1974 Grevenbroich)
Incorporated into : 1974 Meerbusch
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on October 8, 1965.
The arms are supposedly canting. The name Osterath means 'cleared land in the East', as the area was settled from Willich, West of present Osterath. The arms thus show agricultural tools for the clearing of the land, and a sun symbolising East.
