Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of France - Armorial de France |
BONDY
Département : Seine-Saint-Denis
Origin/meaning :
The forest in the base of the arms refers to the Bondy forest, which covered a large area until the 18th century. It was supposed to be the territory of bandits and thus people avoided the forest. I have no information on the background of the upper part of the arms. Any information is welcome.
