During the 19<sup>th</sup> century the flag was sometimes transformed into arms and the present arms were often used, but never officially adopted. In the 1950s the Council of the Canton decided to adopt the original arms of the County of Neuchâtel, but keep the flag. However, this decision was rejected in the referendum in 1954. Ever since the arms are considered the official arms, but they have not been officially adopted. | During the 19<sup>th</sup> century the flag was sometimes transformed into arms and the present arms were often used, but never officially adopted.
