ROSIS

Département : Hérault

Official blazon

Écartelé: aux 1er d'or à la machine à fabriquer les clous de sable, aux 2e et 3e de sinople à la rose d'or, au 4e d'or à la tête de mouflon de sable.

Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted in June 2003.

The first quarter refers to the manufacturing of nails, a tradition in the village. The roses are a canting element and the mouflon sheep head refers to the Caroux National Park, which is the home of a large herd of these sheep.
