Gangelt was in the 13<sup>th</sup> century a possession of the Lords of Heinsberg. The oldest seal, which dates from the late 13<sup>th</sup> century, thus shows the double-tailed lion of the Lords of Heinsberg with a bend between its paws, probably to distinguish the seal from the seal of the city of [[Heinsberg]]. <br/> | Gangelt was in the 13<sup>th</sup> century a possession of the Lords of Heinsberg.

In 1484 Gangelt and the rest of Heinsberg became a possession of the Dukes of Jülich. Although the arms basically did not change, the lion has ever since been coloured in the colours of the lion of [[Jülich]]. The additions in 1972 did not change the arms. | In 1484 Gangelt and the rest of Heinsberg became a possession of the Dukes of Jülich.
