Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The arms are a combination of the patron saint, St. Dionysius, combined with (half) the arms of the counts of Kleve. The town belonged to the counts of Kleve. Walsum became more important during this century as some industry developed. The arms were granted in 1928 and the town became an official city in 1958. http://www.ngw.nl/int/dld/w/walsum.htm
Deutsch: Im oberen Teil ist das Brustbild eines Bischofs, der das abgeschlagene Haupt in seiner linken Hand trägt und die Rechte zum Schwur erhoben hat. Es handelt sich um den hl. Dionysius, den Schutzpatron der Walsumer Kirche. Ausgrabungen in der Nähe der Kirche haben um 1933 einen fränkischen Friedhof freigelegt. Auch hat die historische Forschung nachgewiesen, dass der Heilige schon von den Merowingern verehrt wurde. Und man weiß, dass das Patronat des hl. Dionysius bei den niederrheinischen Kirchen in der Zeit von 800-1000 übernommen wurde. Die Walsumer verehren ihn sicher seit rund tausend Jahren. In der unteren Hälfte des Wappens finden wir die klevische Lilienhaspel, die bezeugt, dass der Gerichtsbezirk Walsum schon vor 1300 zum Herzogtum Kleve gehörte. Die Vorlage für das Walsumer Stadtwappen gab das alte Schöffensiegel des Walsumer Gerichts. Die ältesten Siegel (1426) liegen im Staatsarchiv in Düsseldorf. http://www.zr-din.de/Geschichte/geschichte_210.htm |
