Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on March 19, 2021.
The golden tower refers to the former fortress/castle of which the west wing remains. Jacquemin de Montry Lord of the village in 1457 also used a black shield with three silver towers, 2 and 1.
The colours refer to the Diocese of Verdun, to which the village historically belonged.
The cross refers to St. Pope Urban (222-230) to which the church destroyed in 1916 and rebuilt in 1926 is dedicated.
The golden crown of thorns is that of the Benedictines of Saint Vanne; here it represents the priory dependent on this abbey created in 1107 at a place called “Paul-Croix”. This hamlet was totally destroyed in 1914-1918.
The mallet and the gouge illustrate the presence of a white limestone quarry. The local limestone is appreciated for sculpturing; it has been used for the altars and the decorations of the cathedral of Verdun.
The vine refers to the vineyards in the area until the late 19th century.
