Deutsch: „Auf einem goldgrundigen, rechteckigen Setzschild mit unten abgerundeten Ecken und einer Spitze in der Mitte der Grundlinie, der von einer dreitürmigen, sandsteingrauen Mauerkrone mit einem geschlossenen Stadttor unter dem Mittelturm gekrönt wird, erhebt sich über einem grünen Berggipfel mit sechsfach unterbrochener Höhenkurve hinter einer roten, bezinnten Stadtmauer, die von zwei abgedeckten Seitentürmen flankiert wird, ein roter, hochstrebender gotischer, von drei Rundbogenfenstern durchbrochener Backsteingiebel. In der Mitte des Wappens befindet sich auf einem goldenen Herzschild ein schwarzes Kammrad.“
English: „Gevelsberg received city rights in 1886. As no historical seals of arms were known the above arms were designed and granted in 1903. Although the official description mentiones a golden shield, all images until the1970s show the shield as silver. Presently the city uses the arms with a golden shield. The small shield was described as gold with a black wheel, but the image of the grant shows the small shield red. Later images (Meyer, Hupp) show the wheel blue (see below). The building symbolises the former Cistercian monastery, and was also used as a canting element (from Gewel=Giebel=front of a house). The red and silver colours are derived from the arms of the Counts of the Mark, who owned the area in medieval times. The small shield with the hammer-wheel symbolises the industry in the area. “
