Département: Haute-Savoie
French | De gueules au chevron d'or accompagné de trois fleurs d'asphodèle d'argent. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted in 1979.
The chevron refers to the Cistercian abbey of Tamié to which the area historically belonged. The asphodel flowers is canting bollium albucetum = bulb of asphodel.
The municipality uses the arms also with a chamois head on the chevron. This is not described in the Armorial des communes de la Haute Savoie issued by the departemental archives.
