Official blazon
French De gueules à trois têtus de carrier d'or rangés en fasce et soutenu d'ondes d'argent mouvant de la pointe ; au chef cousu d'azur chargé d'un clou de la Passion d'argent accosté de deux fleurs de lis d'or.

Origin/meaning

The arms show three mallets, hammers used in the local stone quarries. The wavy base and chief refer to the Seine river. The chief shows a silver nail, supposedly from the Cross of Jezus, owned by the Saint-Denis Abbey, but which disappeared in 1233. The fleur-de-lys are a symbol of the royal abbey of St. Denis, to which the village historically belonged.
