Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on July 7, 1987.
These arms show different aspects of the history of Cerdanyola: the lion is taken from the arms of the Marimon family, the marquises of the town (at the top of the arms there is also a marquis crown); the sword is the symbol of St. Martin, the local patron saint; finally, there are the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon (four red pales on gold), remembering the ancient royal palace of Valldaura.
