Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on January 12, 2018.
The previous arms were granted on April 25, 1990.
Cervera was the centre of a county, conceded by the king Pere III, the Ceremonious, in 1353. Because of that, the arms of the town show, duplicated, the red deer on silver (the arms of the counts, the Cerveras) and the four red pales on gold (the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon). At the top there is a crown of a count.
The arms of the counts of Cervera (the red deer on silver) are canting: a deer is a "cérvol" in Catalan.
As in time the municipality wanted to distinguish the arms with the deer from the family arms, the colours were officially changed in 2018.
