Blason de Saints (Seine-et-Marne)
Official blazon
French

De gueules à la fasce ondée d'argent, chargée de trois roues de moulin du champ, accompagnée, en chef, du manteau de saint Martin à l'épée brochant en barre, accosté de deux gerbes de blé, le tout d'or, et, en pointe, d'un bois terrassé du même.

English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms show the local river and its former water mills. The red colour is the colour of the Brie region and the base shows the forests of the Brie. The chief shows two garbs as a symbol for agriculture, and a cloak and sword as a symbol for St. Martin of Tours, the local patron saint. He cut his cloak in half for a beggar.
