 The arms were granted on May 9, 1955.
 The fleur-de-lis are taken from the old seals of the city of [[Erkelenz]], which represent the Maria-abbey in Aachen. The abbey granted in 966 Emperor Otto I grounds in the county. Later the area belonged to [[Geldern]], see the city Erkelenz. The flax flower in the centre of the arms reminds of the fact that the city already in the 12<sup>th</sup> century was an important trading centre for flax and linen.
