Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted in 2011.

The red and gold bars are taken from the arms of the Boncourt family, former lords of the village.

The raised paw Labrador, truffle on the ground is a truffle dog, with the oak branches they evoke the truffle field and the truffle house of Boncourt.

The anvil symbolizes an activity of yesteryear in the town: the forges.
