Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 23, 1961.

The three waves represent three old river beds of the Rhine, which in the local dialect are called Vluynen. The colours are the colours of the counts of Moers, who owned Vluyn from the early Middle Ages. Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
