Escudo de Palau-solità i Plegamans

Official blazon

Escut caironat truncat: 1r d'or, 4 pals de gules, i ressaltant sobre el tot un palau d'argent obert somat d'una pala de sable; 2n de gules, una mà d'argent, i la bordura dentada d'argent. Per timbre una corona mural de poble.

Origin/meaning

These arms have been officially granted on 7th October 1997.

Palau-solità was first mentioned in 955, and Plegamans in 962; the two villages merged in 1698 and formed a royal council. The upper half shows the canting arms of Palau-solità, also named La Sagrera: a "palau" with a "pala" on top (Catalan for "palace" and "shovel, spade" respectively), and the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon (four pales Gules on Or) reminding the royal jurisdiction over the council. The lower half shows the canting arms of lords of the castle of Plegamans, the Vilatorta family: a "mà" (Catalan for "hand") Argent on Gules, with an indented bordure Argent.
