Blason de Saint-Léger-Dubosq
Official blazon
French

Parti: au 1er coupé au I d'argent à l'ombre d'un œil de sable, l'iris de gueules pleurant deux larmes du même et au II d'hermine à la fasce vivrée abaissée de gueules surmontée de trois tourteaux du même rangés en fasce; au 2e d'argent au lion de sable armé et lampassé de gueules.

English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted on April 5, 2001.

The lion is taken from the arms of the Maquises de Vipar, former lords of the village.

The bleeding eye is the symbol of St. Leodegarius (Léger), who was martyred by putting a drill in his eyes. The base shows the arms of the Lords of Silly, which also ruled the village for a period of time.
