Origin/meaning

The bend in the arms is derived from the arms of the Lords of Gomiécourt. The mitre is a symbol for the Bishops of Arras, who had an estate in the municipality. The two lion heads are derived from the arms of the Carnin family, who, in the 18th century, also acquired several possessions in the village.
