Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 30, 1983.
The castle is a canting symbol of Castilla, which means 'Land of Castles'. La Mancha literally means 'the stain' and it is a natural region in the centre of Spain that is actually like a huge spot or stain as it has almost no vegetation. A single silver field is thus chosen as a kind of canting symbol for La Mancha.
