OEUF-EN-TERNOIS

Département : Pas-de-Calais

Origin/meaning

The arms were proposed in 1994, but I have no idea whether the municipality actually adopted the arms.

The arms show the arms of the Wllart family in reversed colours. The arms show three anilles, or mill-irons. The Wllart family was one of the many families who held the estate of Oeuf, and owned the estate for more than a century until 1766. During this time the Lords of Oeuf were promoted to Marquises of Oeuf and hence their arms were chosen as the most representative for all families that ruled Oeuf.
