Origin/meaning

These arms have been officially granted on 16th June 1983.

The saltire and the millstone are the attributes of St. Vincent, the patron saint of the village. A valley (a canting element) separates the chief from the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon (four pales Gules on Or), reminding that Vallromanes belonged until 1949 to Montornès del Vallès, a village under the jurisdiction of the Crown.
