Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted in 1900.

Neudenau received city rights probably by Emperor Friedrich III in 1236. In 1364 the city became a possession of the Archbishops of Mainz. The city belonged to the State of Mainz until 1802.

The oldest seal of the city is known from 1542 and shows the wheel of the State of Mainz, only with 8 instead of 6 spokes. The arms did not change, except from 1803-1806, when the wheel was replaced by three eagles. The eagles were the arms of the Counts of Leiningen who ruled the city in these years.
