LOURINHÃ
Municipality : Lourinhã
District : Lisboa
Official blazon
Escudo de vermelho, dois ramos de loureiro de prata frutados de ouro, com os pés passados em aspa, entre uma vieira em chefe e duas flores-de-lis nos flancos, tudo de ouro e campanha ondada de prata e verde de cinco tiras. Coroa mural de prata de três torres. Listel branco, com a legenda em maiúsculas a negro : “ FREGUESIA DE LOURINHÃ “.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on January 30, 2003.
The laurel branches are taken as it is a very common tree in the area. It also appeared on the old seals of the village. The two branches stand for the two former villages in the parish.
The two broken fleur-de-lys are taken from the arms of Sir Jordão, the oldest Lord of Lourinhã. The scallop is the symbol of St. James and indicates that the village was on a road to Santiago de Compostela.
The base represents the Atlantic Ocean.
