The blue field stands for Mary, Our Lady of Mercy, the co-patroness of the diocese. The cathedral is dedicated to the Epiphany of Our Lord, In heraldry this mystery is traditionally represented by three golden crowns. These symbols represent the three astrologers or wise men who sought the ´new born King´ and came ´to pay homage´ (Mt.2:1-2). | The blue field stands for Mary, Our Lady of Mercy, the co-patroness of the diocese.
