Mottoes in Latin
Heraldry of the World The main resource for civic heraldry since 1996 with 292,673 images |
An overview of Latin Mottoes used in civic heraldry.
For mottoes in other languages see Mottoes.
Mottoes are very common in the British-style heraldry (UK, Australia, Canada, South Africa, New Zealand), and much less common in other countries. Therefore the large majority of the mottoes listed here are from towns and councils from these countries.
If you see a motto on the site that is not yet listed here or have any other addition,
please mail me !
Only true mottoes are listed here, no town names in banners around the arms.
The mottoes are sorted by first letter. For clarity no capital letters are used, except the first letter as well as personal or town names. A translation in English is provided when available.
Mottoes with Latin as the original language.
