Before 1851, the municipality used a seal, of unknown origin, with two

lord's coronet inscribed with "NACI EN EL ARROYO" (Born from the Brook),
the first quarter featuring a cross, three stars, three circles and a
censer, symbolizing the subdistrict of Zarzuela, hospitality, and
spirituality, respectively, and the second quarter featuring a holly oak and a wolf
passant.
The Royal Academy of History amended the coat of arms to "Per fess, 1.
Argent a holly oak vert flanked by a wolf sable, 2. Argent a Cross of
Saint James gules. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed."
