The main element of the shield is a golden half-lion, standing upwards, with two tails; appearing out of three green hills.

The coat of arms has relations to the German name for the town - Löwen (Löwe meaning Lion).

The coat of arms was officially approved on June 18, 1998, in the statute of the Lewin Brzeski Gmina.

[2] The officially used coat of arms of Lewin Brzeski is primitive as it originated from a seal from 1333.

A more accurate design of the coat of arms was suggested in the book Herbarzu miast polskich (Peerage of Polish Settlements) by Plewak and Wanaga.
