Object history
Deutsch: In der heutigen Form wurde das Wappen am 5. Dezember 1910 vom preußischen Staat verliehen. Das älteste Siegel zeigt den frömmelnden Aal im Stadttor, darüber den Heiligen Bartholomäus. Dieser Heilige ist der Stadtpatron von Ahlen. Das Siegel tritt seit dem 13. Jahrhundert auf: Urkunde v. 21. Mai 1255 – „Die Stadt Ahlen tritt zu der Stadt Köln in Landfriedens-Verhältnis“. Seit dem 17. Jahrhundert wird nur noch der Aal, sowohl im Stadtwappen als auch im Siegel, dargestellt.
English: The arms were officially granted on December 5, 1910. Ahlen got city rights in the early 13th century and was part of the Amt Wolbeck of the Oberstift of Münster. The oldest seal shows the canting eel (Aal) in a city gate, over which stands St. Bartholomew, the town's patron saint. From the end of the 17th century only the eel was used, both on the seals as the arms of the city.
