BOISSY-SAINT-LÉGER

Département : Val-de-Marne

Arms (crest) of Boissy-Saint-Léger

Official blazon

D'azur à la croix d'argent chargée d'une crosse de gueules, cantonnée au 1er d'un semé de fleurs de lis, au 2e de trois peupliers rangés en fasce, au 3e d'un arbre, au 4e d'un semé d'abeilles, le tout d'or.

Origin/meaning

The arms show a cross and a crosier for the local patron saint, Saint-Léger. The three poplars and the tree are coanting (bois =forest) as well as a symbol for the estates of Piple (poplars) and Grosbois. The fleur-de-lys are a royal symbol and indicate that the village was a royal possession. The bees are taken from the arms of Marshall Berthier, Prince of Wagram, and owner of the village for some time.
