Origin/meaning

The arms above were proposed in 1994 and are based on the arms of the Cardevacque family, who ruled the village for a long time. Their arms were ermine, with a chief of black. To distinguish the arms from the arms of the family, a mitre and two palm leaves are added to the chief. These are symbols for the local patron saint, St. Amand.
