SAINT-LÉGER-MAGNAZEIX
Département : Haute-Vienne
French |
De gueules à la crosse d'or et à l'épée d'argent passées en sautoir, accompagnées en chef d'une mitre d'argent croisée d'or et en pointe d'une croisette pattée d'or, au monogramme SLM en lettres majuscules entrelacées d'or, brochant sur le tout en abîme. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on October 6, 2010.
The red colour, mitre and sword all refer to St. Léger, who became bishop of Autun in 663 and was killed with a sword.
The small cross in the base is the "Croix de Grandmont", which can be seen on the keystone of the apse of the church of the Monastery of Bronzeaux, created around 1172.
The letters are the initials of the municipality.
