Summary

Description
Deutsch: Wappen der ehemaligen Gemeinde Veert, seit 1969 Stadtteil von Geldern: „In Rot, ein silbernes (weißes) Balkenkreuz; in der Mitte eine schwarze Scheibe, darüber eine blaue Mispelblüte mit goldenen (gelben) Butzen und Kelchblättern.“ Das Balkenkreuz (Kreuz von Köln) steht für die Kölner Bürger, die seit 1663 nach Kevelaer pilgerten und 1686 das älteste Heiligenhäuschen am Niedrrhein in Veert errichteten. Die Mispelblüte (Geldrische Rose) steht für die Zugehörigkeit zu Geldern und das Rot erinnert an den Schutzpatron St. Martin, welcher in älteren Siegeln Veerts abgebildet ist.
English: „Gules,a cross Argent, above in the middle a roundel sable with a medlar flower azure and sepals and blebs Or.“ The local court in Veert was already in the early 14th century a possession of Guelders. The judges of Guelders also presided in Veert. The oldest seal of the court and village of Veert dates from 1449 and shows a divided shield with in the upper part the lion of Guelders and in the lower part two crossed bishop's sticks. A second seal of Veert dating from 1632 shows a completely different image. It only shows the image of the patron saint, St. Martin sitting on a horse and cutting his mantle for a next to him standing beggar.
