Escut caironat: d'atzur, una pobla d'or acompanyada en punta de 2 cérvoles passant d'argent posades en pal. Per timbre una corona mural de poble.

Origin/meaning

These arms have been officially granted on 1st April 1985.

The village developed at the foot of a hill with the castle of Cérvoles at the top. The arms are canting: they show a "pobla" (Catalan for "village") and two "cérvoles" (hinds).
