Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on November 21, 2014.

The dove is the symbol of St. Remigius, the local patron saint. The bend refers to the road of the Calonne. The inkwell and feather refer to the writer Alain Fournier and the garden of the writers in the village.

The green refers to the fields, meadows and woods, the red to the destruction of the village in the First World War.
