Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of France - Armorial de France |
FONTAINEBLEAU
Département : Seine-et-Marne
Origin/meaning
The symbolic is clear from French history: the salamander was Francois I's badge, he built the castle. It was one of Napoleon's favorite residences, whence the canton with the letter N (reserved for 2nd class Imperial cities) and the eagle. The river on the fess alludes to the name of the town, which means beautiful spring.
The arms in the Café Sanka album +/- 1932 |
The arms on a tobacco card by Laurens |
