Origin/meaning

The arms have been officially granted on 4th August 1987.

Canting arms: they show two barley ears (barley being "ordi" in Catalan). The chess rooks Azure on Or are taken from the canting arms of the Rocabertí family (a Catalan "roc" is a chess rook), the counts of Peralada, to which the village belonged.
