Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on September 11, 2023.

The three lion are taken from the coat of arms of the Dordogne department. The chains are the attribute of the patron saint of the local church: Saint Peter in chains.

The oak leaf recalls that the municipality is wooded on 62% of its territory.

Two other proposals were considered in 2023, see images below.
