Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted in 2021.
The shield division symbolises the three former municipalities that merged in 1848. The two leopards are taken from the arms of Normandie and Calvados. The second part shows an apple tree, apples are characteristic for the Augeron part of the municipality. The green field symbolises agriculture and rich pastures. The lower half shows a horse from the arms of the De Boutin family, former lords of Victot, and a wavy bar for the Dorette river.
