Escudo de Borredà/Arms (crest) of Borredà
Official blazon
Catalan Escut caironat truncat: 1r. d'or, 2 homes afrontats alçant 2 dones també afrontades de gules i una filiera de gules; i al 2n, d'argent, un gall de sable ressaltant damunt un bàcul d'abat d'atzur posat en barra. Per timbre una corona mural de poble.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 16, 1983.

The arms show the Ball de Borredà, a typical local dance that is performed in 15th August, during the Festa Major, or main village festival. The symbols of the second partition (a staff and a chicken) are related to the fact that Borredà was given, in the 10th century, to the monastery of Ripoll: the arms of the town of Ripoll are canting ("poll" in Catalan means "chicken").
