Origin/meaning

The arms are known since 1568, as they are shown on a document relating a trial between the Grand Prior of Toulouse Pierre de Baulac Trébons and the Lords of Poucharramet. The quartered arms indicate that the village was ruled both by the order of the Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem (now the Order of Malta, hence the Maltese cross in I and IV) and the Lords of Poucharramet (II and III).
