Summary
| Description |
Deutsch: Wappen der ehemaligen Stadt Bergisch Neukirchen, seit 1975 Stadtteil von Leverkusen: „In Silber (Weiß) über einem blauen Dreiberg eine eintürmige rote Kirche, in Seitenansicht mit blauen Dächern und Kreuzen, deren Portal, Turm- und Chorfenster in Schwarz gehalten sind; über dem Chordach des schwebt schreitend ein blau bewehrter und bekrönter roter doppelt geschwänzter Löwe.“ Das Wappen wurde am 21. Januar 1929 vom Preußischen Staatsministerium verliehen. Dreiberg und Kirche sind sogenannte "redende Symbole" des Wappen. Der Löwe ist der Bergische und weißt auf die Zugehörigkeit zum früheren Herzogtum Berg hin. English: „Argent, above a triple mountain azure a church gules with roofs and crosses patée azure plus windows sable, thereover pending an armed, langued and crowned azure passant double-tailed lion gules.“
The arms were granted on January 21, 1929 and were not based on old seals or arms, as such were not available. The mountain (Berg) and church (Kirche) are canting symbols. The lion is the lion of the counts of Berg, who first acquired the area of the city in the 12th century. |
