DIOCESE OF DES MOINES (Dioecesis Desmoinensis)
Country : United States
Denomination : Roman Catholic
Established : 1911
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The name of the city was taken from that of the river, which in turn is supposed to represent a corruption by the French of the original name, Moingona,--the French at first using the abbreviation 'moin ', and calling the river 'la riviere des moins,' and then, the name haying become associated with the Trappist monks, changing it into 'la riviere 'des moines '.
Thus the arms of the diocese are those of the Trappist-Cistercian Order (field of fleur-de-lys, with a small shield of Burgundy). To this was added a crenellated chief, thus showing the Cistercian arms as if on a city wall.
