Origin/meaning
These arms have been officially granted on 5th September 1995.
The towered wall with two crosses is a traditional sign of the arms of El Pla de Santa Maria, the wall probably alluding to the town, and the crosses to its two churches, Sant Ramon (13th century) and Santa Maria (18th century).
