Official blazon:
Escudo de prata, duas matas de verde, floridas de sua cor, acompanhadas em chefe de uma flor-de-lis azul e em ponta de uma roda de azenha de púrpura. Coroa mural de prata de três torres. Listel branco, com a legenda a negro em maiúsculas : “ MATAS - OURÉM “.
Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on January 13, 1996.
The feur-de-lys symbolises the local patron saint, Our Lady of Patrocínio. The two small goups of trees (matas) are a canting element. The water mill wheel symbolises the (former) watermills in the municipality.
