Origin/meaning
The arms are a combination of elements from the arms of the families that have ruled the village and estate of Landaul.

The besants are a symbol for the crusades, and both the Kerambourg family as well as the Malestroit family participated in the crusades. The silver billets are derived from the arms of the De Robien family from the 17th century. Finally, the ermine symbolises that the whole area is art of Bretagne, the arms of Bretagne are ermine.
