Neuweiler Coat of Arms

Shield Or, a hunting horn Sable with metal fittings Argent and a cord Gules.
Meaning:
Neuweiler before 1935 had no proper arms. The horn was taken from the crest of the Lords of Hornberg, the oldest known local rulers. It is also alluding to the hunting lodge of the Dukes of Württemberg, which was later transformed to a forester's house. The tinctures yellow and black are those from Württemberg.

Banner and arms were approved on 4 July 1967 by Minister of Interior of Baden-Württemberg, published in GABl 619/1967, and confirmed on 22 November 1976 by the county administration, published in GABl 313/1977, after Neuweiler had incorporated five neighbouring villages on 1 January 1975.
