Origin/meaning
During the wars of the Duke of Burgundy against René II of Lorraine, the inhabitants of Laveline helped the Duke of Lorraine in the defense of the castle of Bruyères. As a reward for their loyalty and their courage, René II ennobled them all by giving them this coat of arms. He allowed them, moreover, to take the title of gentleman, for themselves and all their descendants, men and women.
The meaning of the arms, however, is not known.
