Origin/meaning :

The arms were granted on March 38, 1974.

The cross of St. Jacob refers to the first name of the village and the two mountains are the 'dobradas', of hills, near the city that gave the city its name. The wavy bar symbolises the Dobrada rover.

The shield is flanked by coffee and sugar cane, the main crops in the region.
