BELLVER DE CERDANYA
Region : Catalonia
Province : Lleida
Official blazon
Escut caironat: d'argent, un mont de sinople movent de la punta carregat d'una vila d'argent i somat d'un castell de sable obert somat d'una bandera d'or amb 4 faixes de gules i l'asta d'or. Per timbre una corona mural de vila.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 12, 1997.
The arms show the castle of Bellver (now in ruins), founded in 1225 by the count Nunó Sanç of Cerdanya, over the hill named in ancient times Bello Videre. Bellver was the centre of a vast region in Cerdanya, "la Batllia". Later, when Nunó Sanç died (1242), the county of Cerdanya was integrated in Catalonia under the king Jaume I; this is the reason of the royal emblem, the Catalan flag, flying over the castle. At the foot of the hill there is the walled town of Bellver, that still today preserves a minor part of the walls.
