Escudo de vermelho, com faixa ondada de prata e azul de três tiras; em chefe, duas chaves, uma de ouro e outra de prata, passadas em aspa. Coroa mural de prata de três torres. Listel branco, com a legenda a negro, em maiúsculas : “ ESTE - S. PEDRO “.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 20, 2000.

The keys are the symbol of St. Peter, the local patron saint. The red colour symbolises the massacre of 23 inhabitants of the village on March 20, 1809 in a battle against the French invaders. The waves represent the Este river.
