CORVO

District : Açores

Brasão de Corvo

Official blazon

Escudo de prata, com um corvo marinho de negro segurando um peixe de vermelho no bico, pousado sobre um monte de verde, saínte de um ondado de prata e de verde, de três peças; em chefe um açor de negro realçado de ouro voando, segurando uma quina de Portugal nas garras. Coroa mural de prata de quatro torres. Listel branco com os dizeres : " CORVO ", em letras de negro.


Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on August 4, 1948.

The arms show the island of Corvo, which is basically a large volcano, with a canting raven (Corvo). The fish symbolises the importance of fishing for the island. Above the island is the eagle of the Açores group.
