====Origin/meaning====
===Origin/meaning===
The arms are derived from the arms of the Counts of Blâmont, who were descendants of the Counts of Salm. The two salmon are a canting element of the Counts of Salm and were continued by the Counts of Blâmont. The Counts later received the right to add in the chief the fleur-d-lys of France, due to services provided to the French King.

The symbol of the town for many centuries was a single rose, which appeared on the seals of the town. In the present arms the two arms were combined, in which the rose replaced the fleur-de-lis.
