The thistle is the symbol of the [[Lorraine]] region, compare also [[Nancy]], in which the village is situated. The T-cross symbolises the Abbey of Toul, to which the village historically belonged. The fleur-de-lis is the symbol of France, and symbolises the fact that the village became French in 1559. The lion in the base is the symbol of the Pommery family, Lords of Maizières in the 19<sup>th</sup> century. The meaning of the chevron, I do not know. | The thistle is the symbol of the [[Lorraine]] region, compare also [[Nancy]], in which the village is situated.
