LANVALLAY

Département : Côtes-d'Armor

Blason de Lanvallay
Official blazon
French D'azur au pont d'argent de deux arches, l'une à dextre et l'autre au centre, chargé de trois mouchetures d'hermine de sable et surmonté à senestre d'une plante de digitale au naturel posée en bande; au franc-quartier d'azur chargé de sept losanges d'argent et ordonnés 3, 3 et 1.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms show the local viaduct between Dinan and Lanvallay. The Digitalis flower (cotissa in the local dialect) is a canting element for the nickname of the villagers, Côtissois. The free quarter shows the arms of the Dukes of Rohan in blue instead of red, the former rulers of the village. The ermine tails refer to Brittany.
