The arms were created after the unification in 1858 of Oloron and Sainte-Marie. The cow in the arms is taken from the arms of the former territory of [[Béarn]], which showed two cows. Oloron was part of Béarn until the Duchy became part of France. The cross is the symbol of Sainte Marie. | The arms were created after the unification in 1858 of Oloron and Sainte-Marie.
