The lower part shows the lion of the arms of the Dukes of [[Jülich]], who ruled the area for many centuries. The lion is also seen on the oldest 14<sup>th</sup> century seal of Kreuzau. The cross appears in the second seal, dating from the 16<sup>th</sup> century. The cross was placed above the shield, not in the shield. The cross is a canting element (Kreuz=cross). The cross was placed in the shield only later. | The lower part shows the lion of the arms of the Dukes of [[Jülich]], who ruled the area for many centuries.
