Escudo de Sant Pere de Riudebitlles/Arms (crest) of Sant Pere de Riudebitlles
Official blazon
Catalan Escut caironat: d'atzur, 2 claus passades en sautor amb les dents a dalt i mirant cap enfora la d'or en banda per damunt de la d'argent en barra acompanyades al cap d'una branca de créixens d'or en pal. Per timbre una corona mural de vila.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

These arms have been officially granted on 13th November 1995.

The crossed keys are the symbol of St. Peter, the patron saint of the village. The sprig of watercress above is a canting sign: the town is placed by the Riu de Bitlles, and the etymology of this river comes from Latin BIRLAS (derived from BERULAS), meaning "watercress" (or Nasturtium officinale), a plant that grows in pure waters.
