Wappen von Neuweiler

Origin/meaning :
The arms were adopted on June 6, 1927.

Before 1927 the municipality had no seals or arms. The proposal for the initial arms was to have two bends, with alternating green and red squares, symbolising the main road with two rows of houses and gardens. These arms were approved in 1927, but already soon after the bends became black, as the arms were mainly used on the black and white seal of the village.

Literature : Hess and Gönner, 1960
