Armoiries de Vaugneray

Official blazon

D'azur au chevron d'or accompagné en chef à dextre d'une tête de griffon contournée du même et à senestre d'une tête de lion d'argent, et en pointe de la lettre capitale V d'or; au chef d'azur chargé de trois étoiles d'or et soutenu du même.

Origin/meaning

The arms were designed in 1888 and adopted in 1889.

They are based on the arms of the Valentin family, Lords of Vaugneray from the fifteenth century, and the griffin and lion of the church of Lyon, to which the parish of Vaugneray belonged until 1789. The V is the town's initial.
