Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Wappen der ehemaligen Gemeinde Greven, seit 1950 Stadtteil von Greven: „Geteilt durch einen Wellenschnitt, oben in Blau eine liegende silberne (weiße) Spule und unten in Silber (Weiß) zwei gekreuzte rote Schwerter.“ Die Webspule kennzeichnet die Gemeinde als Sitz bedeutender Textilindustrie. Die Schwerter weisen auf den mittelalterlichen Freistuhl, einen Gerichtsort, hin. Der Wellenschnitt symbolisiert die Lage an der Ems.
English: „Party per fess wavy shield azure and Argent, above a bobbin Argent and beneath two crossed swords gules.“ The arms were granted on January 3, 1939. The upper part of the arms shows a bobbin, as at the time the textile industry was of great importance to the area. The base shows two crosswed swords, symbolising the medieval court (Freistuhl) in the municipality. The wavy division line symbolises the Ems river.
