===Official blason=== | |||
*(fr) Parti d’or à la barre de gueules chargée d’oiseaux, accompagnée d’une clé accolée d’une crosse, et d’un poisson portant une bague d’argent à trois diamants, sur le tout d’azur à trois poissons d’argent posés en fasces et rangés en pal, surmontés d’une couronne d’or. | |||
===Origin/meaning=== | |||
These arms were adopted in 2014. | |||
The key and crosier refer to the patron saints of the two villages in the municipality: St. Peter (key) for Allondrelle and St Nicholas for La Malmaison (crosier). The two villages were owned by the Abbey of Orval, which bore a three-diamond ring emerging from a stream as its coat of arms. This is symbolised in the lower half of the arms. | |||
The red bend in gold is the arms of Lorraine and the inescutcheon refers to the County of [[Chiny]], to which the area historically belonged. | |||
Other arms have been mentioned in the Roll of Arms of Lorraine: | |||

The symbolism is similar key for St. Peter, balls (nezants) for St. Nicholas and the ring for the Abbey of Orval. | |||
These arms have not been used by the municipality. | |||
