Shield Azure; an embattled tower Argent with port and windows Gules and portcullis Sable, masoned Sable; surrounded in chief by a Marian crown Or, at dexter by a pair of keys in saltire, one key Or and the other Argent, at sinister a sword and a scimitar in saltire, both Argent hilted Or, in base a half corn cob Or connected with a demi cogwheel Or. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll (Bénard Guedes style) with inscription in black capitals "CESAR".
Meaning:
The keys are an attribute of St. Peter, the local patron saint. The tower might refer to Castro Calbo, a pre Roman fortress, sword and scimitar are referring to a battle, which took place in Cesar in 1035 between Bermudo III of Leon and the Moors. Corn cob and cogwhell are symbolising agriculture and industries. The crown is referring to Our Lady of Grace, who is honoured every year by a great procession.
