MIHAI EMINESCU

District/county (județ) : Botoșani

Official blazon

Un scut triunghiular cu marginile rotunjite, tăiat de o fascie crenelată. În partea superioară, în câmp verde, se află o carte deschisă din argint, cu legăturile și scoarțele din aur, din care iese un luceafăr cu șapte raze de aur, raza cea mai de jos fiind prelungită până în mijlocul cărții. În partea inferioară se află un zid de argint cu rosturile negre. Scutul este timbrat de o coroană murală de argint cu un turn crenelat.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on November 3, 2015.

The green field refers to the secular forests that still cover part of the territory of the locality and were made known by the lyrics of the great poet Mihai Eminescu.

The book and the star remind of Ipotești village, the poet's birthplace, which gives the name of the locality.

The silver wall represents the two Dacian fortresses from Stâncești.

The mural crown with a crenellated tower means that the locality has the rank of commune.
