Blason de Wiseppe
Official blazon
French D'azur chargé à la fleur de lis d'or en chef accostée de deux bars du même adossés du même, au pressoir à metton d'or, la vis d'argent, en pointe et au bâton péri en bande de gueules en abîme; le tout enfermé dans un orle en filet ondé d'argent.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on February 8, 2021.

The wavy bordure represents the Wiseppe river, which (nearly) circles the village.

The two fish (barbels) are taken from the arms of the Duchy of Bar, to which the village belonged for a long period of time, before belonging to Clermontois, which was given by Louis XIV to the Princes of Condé. This is represented by the golden fleur-de-lys and the small red bend, taken from the Condé arms.

The cheese press illustrates the manufacture of the Cancoillotte cheese in Wiseppe at the start of the 20th century.
