BUNEVILLE

Département : Pas-de-Calais

Official blazon

D’or au lion de gueules armé d’azur; au chef d’azur chargé de trois étoiles d’or.

Origin/meaning

I have no idea when the arms were officially adopted.

The history of Buneville is rather complex with many different families owning the estate and village. The arms used by the village are those of Leroy de Buneville, who owned the village in the middle of the 18th century and his family was the last to own the estate before the French Revolution.
