Coat of arms of Saxony
ArmigerFree State of Saxony
Adopted1990
ShieldBarry of ten sable and or, a crancelin vert

The coat of arms of the present-day German free state of Saxony shows a tenfold horizontally-partitioned (Barry of ten) field of black (sable) and gold/yellow (or) stripes,[1] charged with a green (vert) crancelin (a stylized common rue) running from the viewer's top-left to bottom-right (in bend). Although the crancelin is sometimes shown bent (embowed) like a crown, this is due to artistic license.[2] The coat of arms is also displayed on the state flag of Saxony.[2]

The Coat of Arms of Liechtenstein includes the similar arms of the Kuenring family. It has no connection to the arms of Saxony.
