Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 28, 1940.
The arms symbolise the miraculous sea travels of Lisbon's patron saint, St. Vincent (São Vicente). In the 8th century ravens rescued his relics from a sinking ship. 350 Years later, the ravens followed the ship which brought his relics to Lisbon, escorted the procession to the Cathedral and stayed in Lisbon to this very day, to prevent the indfidels from ever coming back. In Lisbon's castle, in memory thereof a pair of ravens is kept in a voliere and cared for by the city.
