Coat of Arms


[Santa Eulália Seia) commune CoA (until 2013)] image by António Martins-Tuválkin andSérgio Horta, 8 July 2025

Shield Or a cross fleury Vert, in chief a palm frond Gules in fess, in base two olive branches Vert fructed Sable with their proximal stems crossed per saltire and tied by a ribbon Gules. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case serifed letters "SANTA EULÁLIA - SEIA".
Meaning:
The cross is blazoned merely as fleury Vert, no mention to the Order of Avis, even though that is what it stands for in this coat of arms, ust like in those of several other neighbouring communes, in which blazons the Avis Order are often mentioned. The palm frond is likely as hagiographic token refering to the toponym.
