SAINTS (SEINE-ET-MARNE)
Département : Seine-et-Marne
Official blazon
De gueules à la fasce ondée d'argent, chargée de trois roues de moulin du champ, accompagnée, en chef, du manteau de saint Martin à l'épée brochant en barre, accosté de deux gerbes de blé, le tout d'or, et, en pointe, d'un bois terrassé du même.
Origin/meaning
The arms show the local river and its former water mills. The red colour is the colour of the Brie region and the base shows the forests of the Brie. The chief shows two garbs as a symbol for agriculture, and a cloak and sword as a symbol for St. Martin of Tours, the local patron saint. He cut his cloak in half for a beggar.
