ARAFO
Region : Canarias
Province : Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Official blazon
Escudo cortado. Primero, de oro, libro cerrado de azur, sumado de báculo puesto en banda, resaltado de corazón de gules, flechado. Segundo, de gules, banda de plata. Bordura de sinople cargada, en jefe, de la leyenda “Añavingo” en letras de plata, y de tres racimos de uvas de oro, dos en los flancos y uno en punta. Al timbre, corona real abierta. Al pie del escudo, una lira y unas ramas de laurel, de oro.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on March 13, 1975.
The image on the upper half is the coat of arms of the monastic order of St. Augustine(lat.: Ordo Sancti Augustini, OSA), which had a convent within the boundaries of the municipality.
The image in the lower half is the coat of arms of the Núñez-family, the founders of the municipality. The grapes are symbolizing the viticulture on the soil of Arafo.
Añavingo is the name of a gorge, supplying the inhabitants with water. The lyra is an alusion to the musical traditions of the village.
