ÉTAMPES-SUR-MARNE
Département : Aisne
French | De gueules au lion contourné d'argent accompagné en chef à dextre d'une croisette, à senestre d'une étoile et en pointe d'un besant, le tout d'or. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The lion is taken from the arms of two families that were lords of Étampes in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; the Mauroys (a silver lion in blue, with a golden bordure) and the Pinterel (who had, among others, a golden lion in their arms).
The small cross is taken from the arms of Michel Philippes des Petits Monts (1703-1793), last lord of Étampes. The star belongs to the arms of his wife Catherine Marguerite Pastey (1691-1776).
The besant in point indicates the name of the town: Étampes comes from the Latin stampae which means place where one beats currency which would make Étampes the monetary workshop of Château-Thierry.
