Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on April 12, 2021.
The red and gold are taken from the arms of the County of Chiny, to which the area historically belonged.
The staff and daisy refer to the Benedictan Priory founded in Cesse in 1260. The staff is the symbol for the prior and the daisy is the symbol for St. Marguerite, the patron saint of the priory.
The mullet is a symbol for beer brewing (it symbolises the 3 elements (air, water and fire) and the 3 operations (germination, mashing, fermentation) in the brewing process). A malt house and a brewery operated in the village in the 18th and 19th centuries. The five sugar loaves, which geometrically constitute a sugar star, illustrate the beet sugar factory under the First Empire.
The bar is the symbol of the Champagne region in which the village is situated.
The oak leaves refer to the surrounding forests.
The alfalfa sprigs symbolise the meadows and cattle breeding.
