| French | De gueules au pal d'or, chargé en chef d'une tête arrachée d'aigle de sable, lampassée de gueules, accosté de deux hures de sangliers affrontées or défendues d'argent; à la champagne ondée d'azur. |

Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on September 30, 2013.
The village of Longchamps was formerly divided into three lordships/estates: one depended on the provost of St Mihiel. The other two, Combervaux and Bassompierre, were a possession of the Wanault Collesson, the Colliquet and the Escale families during the centuries. Elements of their arms have been used in the arms of Longchamps; the pale is taken from the Wanault arms, the boar heads from the Colliquet arms and the eagle head from the Escale arms.
The golden pale also refers to the Aire river. The two strands of alfalfa emphasise the agricultural character of the village.
