PUIGGRÒS
Region : Catalonia
Province : Lleida
Official blazon
Escut caironat: de sinople, un mont d'or movent de la punta carregat de 3 estrelles d'atzur i sobremuntat d'un sextifoli d'argent. Per timbre una corona mural de vila.
Origin/meaning
These arms have been officially granted on 15th March 1996.
The mount is a canting element: the name Puiggròs means literally in Catalan "big hill". The flower as a sixfoil and the three stars are a traditional sign of the arms of the town, probably an allusion to the Virgin Mary, the local patron saint.
