Origin/meaning
These arms have been officially granted on 12th July 1988.
The castle on a hill is the traditional sign on the arms of the village, and it represents the ancient castle of Subirats (10th century), now in ruins. The royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon (four pales Gules on Or) remind the jurisdiction of the counts-kings over the village.
