Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted in September 2022.

The chief with the three ammonites symbolises the finds of ammonites in the municipality and also symbolises agriculture with the green field.

The Maltese Cross refers to the Knights Hospitaller to whom the village historically belonged. The lion is taken from the arms of the Rouergue region.
