FEYZIN

Département : Métropole de Lyon (until 2015 Rhône)

Blason de Feyzin/Arms (crest) of Feyzin
Official blazon
French De gueules à la bande ondée cousue d'azur chargée en pointe d'un soleil d'or mouvant de la pointe, accompagnée en chef d'un fagot d'or et en pointe d'un coq contourné du même; au chef d'or chargé d'un dauphin couché d'azur barbé, crêté, lorré, oreillé et peautré de gueules.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The chief shows a heraldic dolphin for the Dauphiné, the province to which the area historically belonged. The blue wavy bend represents the Rhone with a sunrise. The bunch of branches symbolises the etymological origin of Feyzin, from the Latin fascis meaning in French fagot (=bunch of branches). The rooster was part of the arms of the Chaponnay family, former lords of the village.
