Deutsch: Der Stadt Menden ist mit Urkunde des Regierungspräsienten in Arnsberg vom 2. Dezember 1975 das Recht zur Führung eines Wappens verliehen worden. „Das Wappen der Stadt zeigt in schwarz einen weißen (silbernen) gezinnten Torturm mit beiderseits angebauten Erkern, im Torbogen ein gelbes (goldenes) Fallgitter, davor eine weiße (silberne) Zugbrücke.“ Dasselbe Wappen führte die Stadt Menden (Sauerland) zuvor bereits seit dem 16. Juni 1911. Es stellt einen früheren Turm der Stadtbefestigung dar und erscheint in ähnlicher Form auf alten Siegeln, die bis ins Jahr 1316 zurückreichen. Die älteren Siegel hatten noch nicht das Fallgitter. In der Arnsberger Wappensammlung von 1700 ist das Wappen ebenfalls überliefert, dort jedoch mit goldenem Turm in rotem Feld. Schwarz und Silber, seit 1911 festgelegt, verweisen auf die Farben der ehemaligen kurkölnischen Landesherren.
English: „The arms were granted on June 16, 1911 and confirmed on December 2nd, 1975. The tower already appears on the oldest known seal of the city, dating from the late 13th century. The typical shape of the tower was unchanged during the centuries. The present arms were granted in 1911 in the colours of Cologne, as the city belonged from the 13th century until 1803 black and white, but in 1700 the colours were mentioned as gold in red.“
