Official blazon

Escut caironat: d'or, un cor de gules; el cap de sable. Per timbre una corona mural de vila.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on December 17, 1984.

Canting arms: they show a "cor" (Catalan for "heart"). The colours, gold and a sable top, are taken from the arms of Entença family, because the town was a part of the barony of Entença in the 13th century.
