Region : Extremadura
Province : Badajoz
Official blazon
En campo de azur, sobre terrasa de sinople, dos columnas, de plata, con cintas de oro y la inscripción "plus" en la diestra y "ultra" en la sinistera, en letras de sable, y alzados y apoyados en las columnas, dos leones afrontados, de gules, linguados de lo mismo y uñados de oro.
Origin/meaning
Badajoz was the capital of a muslim kingdom and was taken by Alfonso X of Leon in the 13th century. The lion in the arms is the lion of Leon. The pillars are the pillars of Hercules, a favorite badge of Charles I and they are also present in the National Arms. The arms are sometimes shown with a single lion and pillar, with the text wrapped around the single pillar.
