SÃO MAMEDE
Municipality : Lisboa
District : Lisboa
Official blazon
Escudo de azul, dez faixetas ondeadas de prata, dois livros de prata, realçados de vermelho e encadernados de ouro, em faixa, acompanhados em chefe de um leopardo de ouro, lampassado de vermelho, segurando na dextra uma palma de ouro; em ponta, duas almofadas de tinta de negro, com cordões de vermelho, postas em pala e alinhadas em faixa. Coroa mural de prata de três torres. Listel branco com a legenda a negro, em maiúsculas : “ SÃO MAMEDE “.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on May 21, 1996.
The wavy shield indicates the many waters in the parish. The lion with the palm leaf is the symbol of St. Mamede, the patron saint of the parish of Longos Vales and thus counting for the municipality.
The books symbolise the local schools and education. The ink pads symbolise the fact that the National Printing House is in the parish.
