===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The head of a wild boar represents the forest of Haye where this animal used to be abundant but it is also a reference to the patron saint of Champigneulles, St. Aprus of Toul (St. Epvre). Aprus is derived from the Latin Aper, which means wild boar. | |||
On the upper part of the shield is the silver eagle of the Holy Roman Empire, holding in its beak the golden ring of Saint-Arnould and in its talons a silver banner carrying the Latin words Caritas, pietas: charity and piety which sum up the life of Saint-Arnould. | |||
Below the arms the war cross awarded to the commune of Champigneulles for the exemplary conduct of its inhabitants during the First World War. | |||
