The arms show a canting bridge (pont). The blue and silver refer to the local patron saint, St. Martin of Tours, who cut his cloak for a beggar. The alerion and the stone refer to the higher and lower courts to which the village was subjected. The alerion stands for the court of [[Lorraine]], the stone to the court of the Cathedral Chapter of Metz. | The arms show a canting bridge (pont).
