SERNIO

Region: Lombardia
Province : Sondrio

Official blazon

Interzato in fascia: nel primo d'oro all'aquila di nero, rostrata e coronata d'oro, linguata di rosso; nel secondo d'argento al leone passante di rosso; nel terzo sbarrato di rosso e oro.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on February 24, 1995.

The arms are derived from the arms of the medieval family Omodei, one of the principal families in the Valtellina region. In 1377 the family was mentioned in Sernio and it is likely that they had a mansion or estate in the village.
