Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on April 3, 2019.
The lion's head is a canting element for Lion. The top part of the arms refers to the Côte de Saint-Germain hill, the highest part of the municipality and a nice viewpoint. The division also refers to the local patron saint, St. Martin of Tours, who cut his cloak for a beggar.
The two roman daggers (Pugios) are a symbol for the Roman Arimont camp or fortress in the municipality. The two arrow-splits are a symbol for the well-known archers of the castle in the village.
The branches around the shield refer to the former importance of viticulture until the Phylloxera attack in the mid-19th century. The beech branch refers to the forest in the municipality.
