CHÂTILLON-SUR-COLMONT

Département : Mayenne

Blason de Châtillon-sur-Colmont/Arms (crest) of Châtillon-sur-Colmont
Official blazon
French D'argent à l'épée haute de gueules; mantelé d'azur; au chef bastillé de trois pièces et deux demies d'argent et chargé de trois quintefeuilles de gueules.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted in February 2000.

The blue field indicates the Colmont river, which crosses the municipal territory. The mantling represents the position of the town on a small hill.

The sword is a symbol for St. Martin of Tours, patron saint of Châtillon-sur-Colmont.

The chief refers to the castle which gave its name to the village. It is in the colors of the Lord of Plessis de Châtillon, who owned the castle, and who also used the three flowers in their arms.
