Official blason

  • (fr) De gueules à la tour d'or ouverte, ajourée et maçonnée de sable, accompagnée en chef à dextre d'une couronne fermée au naturel, à senestre dune croisette cléchée, vidée et pommetée de douze pièces d'or et en pointe d'un pont de trois arches d'argent mouvant des flancs.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted in 2003.

The tower symbolises the ruins of the local castle, built by King Charles VII. The bridge is th elocal bridge, which is situated on an historical main road. As several Kings passed the village on the road, a crown was added to the arms. The cross refers to the Occitaine region in which the village is situated.
