Nem�ov�, (district and region Trenc�n) had in its Seal its Patron Saint
Archangel Michael with winged helmet, sword and scales. But the old CoA
from Tatrarevue shows only scales and the sword. It was created as the
communal CoA in 1981 and in 1989 when it was promoted to town the symbols
remained unchanged. The new Coat of Arms of Nem�ov� (from unknown year)
shows interruption of that development tendency of Slovak Heraldry. It
is Archangel Michael in a costume of an Roman soldier
(Argent in field Azure, decorations Or) Its helmet is winged. He holds
the sword and the scales and weighs the souls (so called
"psychostatis"). The flag is still unchanged.
