BRINDISI
Region : Puglia
Province : Brindisi
| Italian | Di rosso al massacro di cervo d'oro; ramifero d'argento sormontato da due colonne dello stesso, con basi, capitelli e corona all'antica d'oro. Lo scudo è sormontato dalla corona di città, fregiato dalle insegne della croce di guerra, araldicamente disposte. |
| English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on August 14, 1924.
The head of a deer is a canting element, as the city's name derives from "Brunda" meaning "The Head of a Deer", inspired by the shape of Brindisi's natural harbour (the port is naturally divided in two parts, West and East Coves). On the head of deer there are the Roman Columns, very important monuments in Brindisi which are the symbol of the town.
The Military Cross of Honor was brought to the city: During the 1st World War, Brindisi was bombed approximately thirty times by enemy forces; from its port, Italian naval ships and submarines left for 207 missions of war.
