CHOISY-EN-BRIE
Département : Seine-et-Marne
Official blazon
Écartelé: au 1er de gueules au chevron ondé couché d'or, au 2e d'azur à la crosse contournée d'argent mouvant de la pointe, au 3e d'azur au silex taillé d'argent, au 4e de gueules à trois navettes de tisserand d'or; sur le tout d'argent à l'étoile de sept rais de sinople.
Origin/meaning
The first quarter shows the two rivers in the village; the red is the colour of the Brie region. The crosier refers to the Saint-Martin-des-Champs abbey, to which the village historically belonged. The flint refers to a prehistoric site near the village. The fourth quarter shows three shuttles, symbol for the formerly important weaving industry. The inescutcheon with the 7-pointed star symbolises the seven roads in the village radiating from the church.
