INDRE-ET-LOIRE

Arms (crest) of Indre-et-Loire
Official blazon
French D'azur semé de fleurs de lis d'or, à la bordure componée d'argent et de gueules.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms are identical to the arms of the former French province of Touraine until 1793. The main field with the fleur-de-lis is derived from the French Royal arms. The bordure is derived from the arms of the Basilica of St. Martin in Tours, the capital of Touraine.
