PAU
Département : Pyrénées-Atlantiques
Official blazon
- (fr) D'azur à la barrière de trois pals, aux pieds fichés d'argent, sommée d'un paon rouant d'or et accompagnée en pointe et à l'intérieur de deux vaches affrontées et couronnées de même ; au chef d'or chargé d'une écaille de tortue au naturel, surmontée d'une couronne d'azur rehaussée d'or et accompagnée à dextre de la lettre capitale H et à senestre du nombre quatre en chiffres romains, le tout d'azur.
Origin/meaning
The peacock in the arms is canting, from Paon or Paou. The cows are taken from the arms of the former Duchy of Béarn to which the city belonged. The oldest known use of the arms dates from 1680. The chief was added in 1829 as a memory to King Henri IV, who founded the royal family of the Bourbons.
