Origin/meaning
The head of a wild boar represents the forest of Haye where this animal used to be abundant but it is also a reference to the patron saint of Champigneulles, St. Aprus of Toul (St. Epvre). Aprus is derived from the Latin Aper, which means wild boar.
On the upper part of the shield is the silver eagle of the Holy Roman Empire, holding in its beak the golden ring of Saint-Arnould and in its talons a silver banner carrying the Latin words Caritas, pietas: charity and piety which sum up the life of Saint-Arnould.
Below the arms the war cross awarded to the commune of Champigneulles for the exemplary conduct of its inhabitants during the First World War.
The Latin motto "In campo, per aquam, ignem, atque sanguinem" means "In the field by water and fire and also by blood.
