Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of France - Armorial de France |
VAURÉAL
Département : Val-d'Oise
Origin/meaning
The lower half of the arms shows the prehistoric megalithic structure discovered in 1867 by Count Amédée de Caix de St-Aymour. The structure obviously was the remnant of an important grave, as could be concluded from the many gifts found in the structure. The three fleur-de-lis are the symbol of France and also were used by the Counts de Caix de St-Aymour.
Literature : Gassowski, A : Armorial des communes du Val-d'Oise. Poster published by Gaso Mériel, 1995; background from Bruno Courtin, France.
