CARANSEBEȘ
District/county (județ): Caraș-Severin
Official blazon
Un scut curbat la bază, tăiat-despicat în talpă. Primul cartier, pe roșu, conține o cetate medievală de argint, cu două turnuri ascuțite și poartă centrală închisă, însoțită de un "soare-răsare" și o lună, ambele de aur. Deasupra cetății planează un braț drept înzăuat cu spadă, tot de argint. Cartierul al doilea, pe albastru, îl prezintă pe Sfântul Gheorghe ecvestru, străpungând cu sulița anticristul reprezentat printr-o amfipteră, totul de argint. Aureola Sfântului Gheorghe și solzii animalului sunt executate din aur. Al treilea cartier, pe aur, reprezintă un soldat roman cu scutul lăsat, sprijinindu-se într-o suliță cu vârful în jos, totul de culoare albă, ce sugerează marmura. Scutul este timbrat de o coroană murală din argint cu cinci turnuri crenelate, simbolizând statutul de municipiu al localității.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 18, 2002.
The upper half refer to the 13th century, a period in which Caransebeș is documented and in which the fortified city experienced a strong development. The city is known as a bastion for defending Christianity against pagan invasion, and the two stars signify freedom, abundance, eternity, but also the renewal of Caransebeș.
Saint George is spiritual patron of the Diocese of Caransebeș and represents the victory of Good against Evil.
The Roman soldier from the last quarter is the embodiment of Virtus, the Roman god of courage, and refers to the traditional virtues: honesty, courage, sincerity, modesty, moral qualities typical of the inhabitants of this town.
