REILLON
Département : Meurthe-et-Moselle
| French |
Gironné de huit pièces appointées en chef à dextre d'or et de gueules, à trois croix latines d'argent, 2 et 1, brochant sur le tout. |
| English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The gironny is reminiscent of the sun's rays and phonetically to the name of the town.
The village was located on the front line during World War I and was completely destroyed and then rebuilt. The chief's two Latin crosses represent the two cemeteries of soldiers who died for their homeland, one French with 1,400 graves and the other German with 5,500 graves. The last cross symbolizes Calvary of 1604, located between the church and the town hall. The colors are those of Lorraine.
