Département : Charente-Maritime

Official blason

(fr) Tiercé en pairle renversé: au 1er de gueules à la colombe en vol d'argent tenant dans son bec un rameau d'olivier de sinople, au 2e d'argent au cep de vigne de tenné, feuillé de sinople, fruité de pourpre et tuteuré de sable, au 3e d'azur au monde d'or.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted in 2021.

The dove is taken from the arms of the Alby de Chateaurenard family, former lords of the village. The grapes refer to viticulture and the orb is a symbol for St. Saviour, to whom the local parish church is devoted.
