SAINT-VIT

Département : Doubs

Armoiries de Saint-Vit

Official blazon

De gueules à la bande d'argent chargée d'une lionne bondissante de sable, accompagnée d'un soleil couchant et d'une roue de six rayons en pointe, le tout d'or.

Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted on March 2, 1985.

The red colour is the colour of the patron saint, Saint Vitus. The sun refers to King Louis XIV (the 'Sun-King'), who once passed through the village. The lion is the lion of the Franche-Comté in different colours. The wheel refers to the fact that the village historically has been on a main road (hence the passage of the King).
