LUNÉVILLE

Official blazon
French	D'or à la bande d'azur chargée de trois croissants d'argent.
English	blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms are based on the seal and arms of the medieval estate of Luneville, which showed a red bend instead of the present blue bend. The arms may be derived from the arms of Lorraine, in which the eagles of Lorraine were replaced by canting crescents (from luna, latin or lune, French for moon). The colours were changed to distinguish the present arms from the historical ones.

The arms in Traversier (1842)	The arms by Guilbert, 1853
The arms in the Café Sanka album +/- 1932	The arms on a tobacco card by Laurens

Literature: Meyer, 1997
