(fr) De gueules à la ville d'argent sur un rocher de sinople, accompagnée en chef d'une foi d'or; au franc-canton d'azur à la lettre capitale N d'or surmontée d'une étoile rayonnante du même.

The arms were adopted in 1982, but have been in use much longer.

I have no further information on the meaning or origin of these arms. Any additional information is welcome.

The arms in the Café Sanka album +/- 1932	The arms on a tobacco card by Laurens
