From before the 16th century the coats of arms of the city showed a saint Michael bringing down a dragon. There were variants, such as the archangel brandished a lightning or a lance. Sometimes, he held his shield, sometimes a pair of scales. Saint Michael. who is the patron saint of Neufchâteau, has the responsibility to weigh souls at the entry of the next world and to steer them towards the Paradise or towards the Hell.

The old arms were granted on September 10, 1818 and confirmed on December 31, 1838; the new arms were granted on November 26, 1981.

From before the 16th century the coats of arms of the city showed a saint Michael bringing down a dragon. There were variants, such as the archangel brandished a lightning or a lance. Sometimes, he held his shield, sometimes a pair of scales. Saint Michael. who is the patron saint of Neufchâteau, has the responsibility to weigh souls at the entry of the next world and to steer them towards the Paradise or towards the Hell.
