MARTORELL

Region : Catalonia
Province : Barcelona

Escudo de Martorell/Arms (crest) of Martorell
Official blazon
Catalan Escut caironat: de sinople, un mar en forma de peu ondat d'argent, carregat de 2 faixes ondades d'atzur, sostenint una torre d'or oberta acostada d'una mà d'or, de la destra, i d'un martell d'or, sinistra. Per timbre, una corona de marquès.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

All the elements in the arms are traditional and canting: they show a "mar", a "mà", a "torre" and a "martell" (Catalan for sea, hand, tower and hammer, respectively). The marquis crown at the top of the arms refers to the fact that Martorell has been the centre of a marquisat since 1637.
