The arms show an anvil, the attribute of St. Adrian, the local patron saint, that was martyred by dismembering with an axe over an anvil; the anvil also represents the industrial sector of the town, linked to the river Besòs, that bisects Sant Adrià; this river is symbolized by the wavy bar below the anvil.
