VILLIERS-SUR-THOLON
Département : Yonne
Incorporated into : 2017 Montholon
Official blason
- (fr) D'azur à trois chevrons d'or, celui du haut brisé, accompagné en chef d'une grappe de raisin, tigée et feuillée, accostée de deux agneaux pascaux crucifères, la tête contournée, affrontés, celui de dextre portant une banderole, le tout d'or.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on October 20, 2007.
The chevrons are taken from the arms of the Clermont-Gallerande family, former lords of the village.
The two Agnus Dei refer to the patron saint St. John Baptist and to the Abbey of Saint-Germain of Auxerre, which owned the local church and parish.
The bunch of grapes refer to the (former) importance of viticulture for the village.
