AUVERGNE (Province)
French | D'or au gonfanon de gueules frangé de sinople. |
English | Or, a gonfannon gules outlined with sinople. |
Origin/meaning
The gonfanon, emblem of Auvergne, supposedly originated from the banner which Eustace III carried, Count of Boulogne, at the time of the conquest of Jerusalem with his/her brother Godefroy de Bouillon. Auvergne was made a hereditary duchy by the king Jean II the Good in 1360, became joined to the Crown in 1531 and joined with France in 1610.
