Official blazon
Escudo de púrpura, ponte medieval de dois arcos, de prata, lavrada de negro, firmada nos flancos e movente de campanha diminuta ondada de prata e azul de três tiras; em chefe, cruz de Ordem do Santo Sepulcro, de ouro. Coroa mural de prata de três torres. Listel branco, com legenda negro: " TRANCOZELOS ".
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 16, 2002.
The arms show the local bridge, a typical landmark for the parish. The cross refers to the Order of the Holy Sepulchre, to which a local monastery belonged.
The wavy bar is taken from the arms of Penalva do Castelo. The purple colour refers to the importance of viticulture for the area, which is known for its red wines.
