Origin/meaning

The arms were granted by the Emperor Charles V to the New Kingdom of Granada on December 3, 1548 in Valladolid. It was used by the Viceroyalty of New Granada until independence. It continued to serve unofficially as the emblem of the city, and was formally adopted as the arms for the city of Bogotá on June 13, 1932.

The eagle is the imperial symbol, granted by Charles V and it holds in each claw 2 red pomegranates, the symbol of New Granada (granada means pomegranade).

Its border is azure with nine golden pomegranates, which represent the states that in 1548 formed the New Kingdom of Granada.
