Official blazon

Escut caironat: d'argent, 2 palmes de sinople passades en sautor que ressalten sobre una bàcul d'abat de sable en pal. Per timbre una corona mural de poble.

Origin/meaning

These arms have been officially granted on 3rd October 1989.

The arms show two crossed palms, the attribute of the martyr St. Julian, the local patron saint, and an abbot staff, an allusion to the monastery of Sant Quirc de Colera, situated in the municipality, whose abbots founded and owned the village.
