Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on March 12, 1936.

The arms show a wild boar, the Boar of Murça, which, according to legend, in the 9th century terrorised the village. It has also been referred to as an ancient Celtic diety. There is, obviously, no poof of any of this, but there is a large statue of the boar in the town.

The olive tree and grapes refer to the two main crops in the municipality.

The statue of the boar (source):
