Abstract.
We clarify the relation among canonical, metric and Belinfante's energy–momentum tensors for general tensor field theories. For any tensor field T, we define a new tensor field 
in terms of which metric and Belinfante's energy–momentum tensors are readily computed. We show that the latter is the one that arises naturally from Noether's theorem for an arbitrary spacetime and it coincides on-shell with the metric one.
