Official blason

De gueules à la bande d'or, chargée de trois roues dentées de sable et accompagnée en chef d'un flambeau d'argent enflammé d'or et en pointe d'un microscope d'argent.

Origin/meaning

The microscope in these arms refers to Louis Pasteur, the famous microbiologist who worked in the arrondissement. The Louis Pasteur institute in Paris and the word pasteurisation are named after him.

I have no information on the origin or meaning of ththe other parts of these arms. Any information is welcome !
