Azure nine churches set 3-3-3 Argent roofed Gules with port and windows Sable the whole enframed by a cartouche Brunatre and ensigned by a mural crown of the Second.
Christopher Southworth

The arms are canting with the nine churches ("neun Kirchen"), but the origin of the name has other roots. The place was originally called "bei der niuwen kirchen" (at the new church) and meant the parish church, which was mentioned first in 1094. Later the name changed to Neuenkirchen, finally to Neunkirchen.
