Official blazon

Escudo de negro, coração de filigrana de ouro, esmaltado de azul, contido em grinalda de oito espigas de trigo de ouro, sustidas e folhadas do mesmo. Coroa mural de prata de cinco torres. Listel branco com a legenda a negro " CIDADE DE GONDOMAR ".

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 31, 1997.

The arms show a heart made of filigraine gold. This represents the long tradition of jewelry making in the city. The heart is surrounded by wheat stalks as a symbol for the rich agricultural lands surrounding the city.

Previously the city used the arms below, granted on April 29, 1938. The arms only differ in the crown and the status of the city (Vila vs Cidade).
