  • The coat of arms of Cluj-Napoca is the heraldic symbol standing for the city of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The city's first recorded coat of arms dates back to 1369, and since then, the coat of arms has mostly kept its features, until 1948. In 1970 a new coat of arms was designed by the communist authorities, inserting the original heraldic symbol. The current design dates from 1996, when the former mayor Gheorghe Funar organised a contest for the new symbol of the city. It was used illegally until 2007, when the new mayor Emil Boc took the National Committee of Heraldry, Genealogy and Sigillography of Romania to court in order to win the committee's approval of the new coat of arms, although it does not respect any heraldic rule, nor it depicts any link to the history of the city.
