Armoiries de Ferrette

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1983, but have been used for a longer time.

The arms are identical to the arms of the medieval Counts of Ferrette, as well as the former County Ferrette from 1324-1793. Ferrette was mentioned as a city in the 13th century, but the oldest seal dates from 1555. The seal already showed the use of the arms of the county by the city. The first coloured description dates from the 17th century, and was described as a blue with two silver fish. In the 18th century the arms were black with two silver fish. In the late 19th century the colours of the former county were adopted. Whether the change of colour prior to 1793 was used to indicate the difference between city or county is not known.
