Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The silver (=white) shield is divided by three blue barrulets. Above are three bearded heads having blonde hair. The heads are ordered horizontally.
Meaning:
According to source the heads are symbolizing St.Paul, the patron saint of the archbishopric of Münster. The legend said, that his head had been multiplied thrice, after the saint had been beheaded. The barrulets are symbolizing the barons of Lon. The ensemble already can be found on seals from the 14th century.

The coat of arms was new defined in 1909 with those colours, which had been said to be traditional. The coat of arms was granted on 14 August 1909 by the Prussian king. In §2(3) of Hauptsatzung of the city of Stadtlohn, version 15 December 1999, just the plain flag is mentioned, but according to a template, published by the city the banner described above is in use.
