Object history
Deutsch: Monheim wurde 1960 Stadt und führt das 1938, durch den Heraldiker Wolfgang Pagenstecher entworfene Wappen fort. Es geht auf das Siegel der ortsansässigen Vogtfamilie Aschenbroich mit der Devise "NOCET ESSE LOCUTUM" (Geschwätz schadet) aus dem 17. Jahrhundert zurück. Zu diesem Symbol tritt das alte Erkennungszeichen, der bergische Löwenschild der früheren Landesherren hinzu.
English: The arms are identical to the arms of the Aschenbroich family, who ruled in Monheim in the 17th and 18th centuries and used their arms in the local seals. In addition to the arms of the family a small shield with the arms of the counts, later dukes, of Berg was added. The Aschenbroich family were vassals of the dukes of Berg. Before the 17th century the local seal showed the patron saint, St. Gereon.
