Description: The arms were granted in 1909 after the merger of the three cities (Old-) Saarbrücken, St. Johann und Malstatt-Burbach to new Saarbrücken. The lion is the lion of Nassau-Saarbrücken, the county of which the city was the capital. The colours of the bordure are the Prussians. The rose is the old symbol for St. Johann and, combined with the lion, was used on the common seals of Saarbrücken and St. Johann since 1462. The tools were taken from the arms of Malstatt-Burbach.
