ALPICAT

Region : Catalonia
Province : Lleida

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 7, 1983.

The arms are canting; they show a "pi" (Catalan for pine tree), that reminds the central part of the village's name. The other elements, the knife and palm, are the symbols of the martyrdom of saint Bartholomew, the local patron saint.
