Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Portugal - Brasões dos municípios portugueses |
TROVISCAL
Municipality : Oliveira do Bairro
District : Aveiro
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 29, 1997.
The two branches are branches of the spurge-laurel (Daphne laureola or trovisco in Portuguese) and thus a canting element. The bunch of grapes symbolises the viticulture in the area, which is known for its red wines. The open book symolises the fact that the village is the centre of learning for a rather large area. The village also has a school of music, an orchestra and several choirs, which is surprising for such a small village. This is symbolised by the lyra in the upper right corner of the arms.
