CHALLANS
Département : Vendée
French | D'azur au chaland d'or, habillé et pavillonné d'argent, voguant sur une mer ondée d'azur, surmonté d'une étoile à dextre et d'une tour à senestre, le tout d'or. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The municipality uses the motto : "In viam prosperitatis et pacis". The boat is a Chaland de Loire, a flat bottomed boat as used on the Loire River, and thus a canting symbol. I have no information on the meaning of the star and tower.
