The arms are based on a legend, in which King Louis IX (King Saint Louis) during one of his many visits between 1227 and 1268 was offered a bunch of watercress by the citizens to quench his thirst as it was a very hot day. The King was so grateful that he granted the arms with the watercress under the Royal Chief to the city.
