Object history |
Deutsch: Das Wappen wurde der Stadt Borken wurde zuletzt am 22. April 1970 durch den Regierungspräsidenten in Münster verliehen. Das Wappenbild geht auf das älteste Siegel der Stadt (erster Abdruck 1263) zurück. Als Wappen erscheint es erstmals in einem wohl von 1578 stammenden Wappenschild, der in die Schützenkette des St.-Johanni-Bürgerschützenvereins aufgenommen wurde. Mauertor und Türme - häufig Sinnbilder für Städte - sollen hier wohl entsprechend der falsch verstandenen ältesten Namensform "Burke" eine Burg bedeuten.
English: The arms of Borken were granted on June 24, 1910 and again on April 22, 1970. The arms are based on the oldest known seal of Borken, dating from 1250. Later seals show the same compostion, as is seen on the example below. In the 16th century a small letter B is added to the castle, probably to distinguish the seal from similar seals of other cities. The city wall was added in the 17th century.The castle is a common symbol used in the Middle Ages by cities on their seals, but for Borken it is also a canting symbol; the name is derived from Burke, or castle. The colours are historical and have been used for centuries, their original meaning is no longer known. |
