Deutsch: „In Rot eine gezinnte goldene (gelbe) Stadtmauer mit einem goldenen (gelben) Torturm, auf der je ein silberner (weißer) Kranich, einander zugewendet und ein Bein gegen den Turm gestellt.“ Das Wappen ist "redend" und entstammt einem alten Stadt- und Schöffensiegel der ehemaligen mittelalterlichen Stadt im Kranichenbruch (Stadtrechte von ca. 1290-1800).
English: „Gules, an embattled wall Or with a tower Or; thereupon turned towards each other two cranes Argent placing a leg against the tower.“ The arms were officially granted on July 28, 1972. The arms are based on the old seal of Kranenburg, known since the 13th century. The arms are canting, Kranenburg meaning castle of the cranes. None of the 4 added municipalities in 1969 had their own arms, so the arms were not changed after the merger.
