Deutsch: Die Stadt Kalkar führt ein Wappen, ein Siegel und eine Flagge. „In Rot ein silberner (weißer) Herzschild begleitet von drei goldenen (gelben) Zinnentürmen im Verhältnis 2:1.“ Bereits im mittelalterlichen Siegeln Kalkars werden die Symbole mit dem silbernen Herzschild der klevischen Landsesherren gezeigt. Die drei Zinnentürme sind erstmals 1500 nachweisbar; sie sind in Anlehnung an das Klever Stadtwappen tingiert.
English: „Gules, an escutcheon Argent accompanied by three merlon towers Or in ratio 2:1.“ Kalkar became a city early in the 13th century and was walled around 1250. The oldest known seal, dating from the 14th century, shows a castle, with on the middle tower the arms of the counts of Kleve, the city was part of the county of Kleve. The old arms of Kleve were a red shield with a white escutcheon. Later seals show on the tower arms like the present one, except that the towers are replaced by roses. The towers do not appear until the 15th century. The small towers finally replaced the main castle behind the shield. The arms thus did not change since the 15th century. In the 17th century and later a knight was often used as a supporter for the arms, but in 1974 when the arms were officially last granted, the supporter was omitted.
