The arms were officially granted on June 6, 1983. Although the arms were approved by King Ludwig I of Bayern in 1837, and widely used since, they were not officially granted. | The arms were officially granted on June 6, 1983.

The arms were based on an early 18<sup>th</sup> century seal showing St. Sebastian, the patron saint of the main church in the city (which was destroyed in 1928). In 1954 the colours of the city were determined as white and blue. These colours are taken from the arms of the family Von der Leyen (see also [[Simpelveld]]) who had one of their castles in the city. Blieskastel was part of the [[State of Trier]] until 1660 and was ruled by the Von der Leyen family from 1660-1793 as vassals of the bishops of Trier. | The arms were based on an early 18<sup>th</sup> century seal showing St. Sebastian, the patron saint of the main church in the city (which was destroyed in 1928).
