Origin/meaning :

The arms were granted on March 20, 1978.

The grapes symbolise the importance of viticulture in the region. The cross, heart and anchor represent the three theological virtues: faith, hope and charity, which were the guide of the people since the foundation of the city.

The shield is flanked by coffee and strawberry, the main crops in the region.
