The arms of Igualada contain the arms of Barcelona (quarterly with the cross of St. George at 1st and 4th quarters, and the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon in 2nd and 3rd quarters), because in 1381 the city received the privilege of being a "street of Barcelona" (see l'Ametlla del Vallès), and they are singularised by a wavy base, Argent and Azure, which is the representation of the Anoia, the river that flows along the city. | The arms of Igualada contain the arms of Barcelona (quarterly with the cross of St. George at 1st and 4th quarters, and the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon in 2nd and 3rd quarters), because in 1381 the city received the privilege of being a "street of Barcelona" (see l'Ametlla del Vallès), and they are singularised by a wavy base, Argent and Azure, which is the representation of the Anoia, the river that flows along the city. | ||
