VERNEUIL-LE-CHÂTEAU
Département : Indre-et-Loire
French | De sinople au chevron renversé et abaissé d'argent, surmonté d'un château, donjonné d'une pièce, flanqué de deux échauguettes, girouetté, d'or, maçonné, ouvert et ajouré de sable, au crosseron de gueules brochant en pointe sur le chevron. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on November 18, 2014.
The inverted chevron resembles the town's initial and the castle is a canting element (castle=château). The crosier symbolises St. Hilaire of Poitiers, the local patron saint.
