| Spanish | En campo de gules un corazón de este color, fileteado de oro, y en torno a él la leyenda –Priscas novissima exaltat et amor- cargado de una lis y un león del propio metal. Sumado de corona real y acompañado de seis coronas, también de oro, en dos, en dos y dos; bordura de León y Castilla, en sus esmaltes, en 16 componentes. Al timbre, corona real. |
| English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 21, 1968, but initially already in 1715.
The city was the capital of a small Moorish Kingdom and was taken by Alfonso X of Castille and Leon in 1263. The arms were granted in 1715 and show 5 crowns for the old Kingdom and the bordure of Castille and Leon. I have no information on the meaning of the heart.
