Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of France - Armorial de France |
BLINGEL
Département : Pas-de-Calais
Origin/meaning
The arms were proposed in 1996; I have no idea whether the arms were actually adopted.
The golden fleur-de-lis is taken from the arms of the Blangy Abbey, to which the village belonged for many centuries. The lower half shows a fountain, for the healing waters in the chapel of Saint-Emme in the hamlet of the same name.
Literature : Bouchet et al, 1994
