Püttlingen Coat of Arms

Shield Azure semy of billets Or, a lion rampant Or crowned of the same, at dexter mantled Gules a cross moline Argent, at sinister mantled Argent a fess Gules.
Meaning:
The lion is taken from the arms of the Counts of Nassau-Saarbrücken and had also been part of the municipal arms of former Köllerbach Municipality. Cross and fess are taken from the family arms of the Counts of Kriechingen. The red fess had been their proper family arms and the cross Moline was representing the Luxemburgian Simmern branch of the family.
