The azure indicates the presence of several rivers which cross the municipal territory.

The silver bar refers to the fact that the village is crossed by the Papinais stream; it is shown like a wall referring to the castles of Minzé, Châtelain, Chevallerie and Mortaise in the municipality.

The crosses symbolize St. Mauritius, the patron saint of the village.
