Deutsch: Das von Walther Bergmann gestaltete Wappen wurde am 21. Juni 1976 vom Regierungspräsidenten in Düsseldorf verliehen. Es ist eine Kombination der Wappen der ehemaligen Städte Langenberg (Eichenblatt), Neviges (Doppelsparren der Grafen von Hardenberg) und Velbert (Schlüssel), die seit dem 1. Januar 1975 die neue Stadt Velbert bilden. Silber und Rot sind die vorherrschenden Farben sowie auch die Farben der ehemaligen Landesherrn der Grafen von Berg.
English: The arms were granted on June 21, 1976. After the merger with the two other towns, the present arms were designed. They show the key of the old arms of Velbert, an oak leaf for Langenberg and the chevrons of the counts of Hardenberg for Neviges. Gules and Argent were the main colours in the three former arms and the colours of the counts of Berg. |
