Castro Verde means "Green Castle", thus the green castle portrayed on the town's arms. The wheat stands for the main activity in the municipality: agriculture (namely wheat production). The pick represents the rich soil and mining activities (mainly copper). | Castro Verde means "Green Castle", thus the green castle portrayed on the town's arms.
