Summary
The arms were granted on July 3, 1925 and slightly changed on June 8, 1979. They show the lion of the Dukes of Limburg, who used a lion gules on a shield Argent. The oldest known use of the double-tailed lion dates from 1392 on a seal form Jean de Fauquemont. The Lords of Fauquemont were lords of Saint Vith already in the 12th century. Later the town was a possession of the Counts of Vianden and the Princes of Oranje-Nassau.
