Novosibirsk Coat of Arms

The coat of arms complements the stylized image of the bridge over the Ob River. The coat is topped with a golden crown with five three-point spikes. The chargers are black sables. There is wavy crossed band at the foot of the coat whose colors match the city flag. At mid-bottom, there is a dark-red bow on top of two black upturned arrows.

The silvery-black thin belt on the coat of arms symbolizes the Trans-Siberian Trunk Railway. The number of spikes on the crown shows the status of the settlement, highlighting that Novosibirsk is a regional center.

The sables, bow, and arrows are borrowed from the historical coat of arms of Siberia and comply with heraldic rules in terms of colors, proportions, and elements’ arrangement.
