Nohfelden Coat of Arms

Shield parted by a pale Or charged with a wolf trap Gules; at dexter Sable a sinister facing lion rampant Or, crowned, armed and tongued Gules; at sinister Argent a lion rampant double queued Azure, crowned Or, armed and tongued Gules; chief chequered of Argent and Gules.
Meaning:
Until 1790 the current territory of the municipality was divided between the Dukes of Pfalz-Zweibrücken as heirs of the Counts of Veldenz, rulers in Eckelhausen, Eisen, Mosberg-Richweiler, Nohfelden, Türkismühle(restricted), Walhausen and Wolfersweiler; the Lordships of Eberswald and Dagstuhl, both under direct imperial rule; and the court district of Neunkirchen upon Nahe. The chief displays the arms of the Counts of Sponheim. Differentiations of this pattern also appear in the arms of the former municipalities of Eisen, Eiweiler, Mosberg-Richweiler and Selbach. The sinister facing lion is a differentiation of the arms of the Dukes of Pfalz-Zweibrücken and the Palatine Counts. The wolf trap is taken from the arms of Neunkirchen upon Nahe and is representing the former court district of Neunkirchen. The blue lion is quasi a mixture of the Palatine arms and those of the Counts of Veldenz.

Nohfelden Coat of Arms (until 1973)

Shield parted per fess embattled, above Argent a demi-lion issuant Gules crowned Or, beneath Sable two halberds Or in saltire.
Meaning:
Embattlements and halberds, as arms of the miners used on parades, are reminding on the remains of the local castle. The lion is a differentiation of the family arms of the Lords of Oberstein. Wilhelm Bozzel II of Oberstein finished the local castle in 1285 as vassal of the Counts of Veldenz. The tinctures of the lower half are those of the Palatine lion and are alluding to the Palatine Counts of Rhine and the Dukes of Pfalz-Zweibrücken. Nohfelden was seat of a district (German: Amt) since 1477.
