ARNES
Region : Catalonia
Province : Tarragona
Official blazon
Escut caironat: de gules, 2 arnes d'or posades en faixa, acompanyades al cap d'una creu de Malta d'argent. Per timbre una corona mural de vila.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on April 10, 1984.
The arms are canting: they show two "arnes" (Catalan for beehives). They include also the Cross of Malta, because Arnes belonged to the Templar (later Hospitaller) order of Horta de Sant Joan, a nearby village.
