SÂMBĂTA DE SUS

District/county (județ) : Brașov

Official blazon

Un scut triunghiular, cu marginile rotunjite, tăiat de un brâu zimțat (chevron dublu), de argint. În partea superioară, în câmp de hermină, se află o cruce treflată de aur. În vârful scutului, în câmp albastru, se află în dreapta un soare heraldic, iar în stânga o lună Crai Nou de argint. Scutul este trimbrat de o coroană murală de argint cu un turn crenelat.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on August 11, 2010.

The ermine field and the trefoil cross refer to the Brancoveanu foundation from Sâmbăta de Sus.

The bar represents the geographical location of the commune at the foot of the Făgăraș Mountains.

The two stars are taken from the old seals, from 1851, of the communes of Sâmbăta de Răsărit and Sâmbăta Apuseană.

The silver mural crown with a crenellated tower means that the locality has the rank of commune.
