Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 16 1983.
The town of Banyoles, laying near a picturesque lake, is known too by the so-called "Banyoles jaw", an ancient vestige of a pre-neanderthalian man, 90.000 years old. The arms show traditionally a letter B (the initial of the town's name) and the four gules pales on gold of the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon.
