Official blazon

(it) Inquartato: nel primo, d’azzurro a croce greca patente d’oro, nel secondo di rosso a una palma di verde; nel terzo pure di rosso a una corona d’oro gemmata, nel quarto d’argento a otto fasce ondate d’azzurro. motto: IN LAUDEM DOMNINI MARTYRIS.

Origin/meaning

The cross is the symbol of Christ; the palm and the crown are the iconographic attributes of the martyrs and, together with the wavy field (which recalls the Stirone river), they are a reference to the patron saint San Donnino and to his martyrdom.
