The arms correspond to the traditional arms of the Bilbao City. It represents the Church of San Antón (Saint Anthony) and the old first bridge of Bilbao over the Nervión River (destroyed at the beginning of XX century and replaced by a new one). The two wolfs over the bridge represent the arms of Bilbao's founder, Don Diego López de Haro, who also granted the city rights.. The "López" surname come from latin "lupus" (wolf). | The arms correspond to the traditional arms of the Bilbao City.
