Coat of Arms


[Torre de Moncorvo commune CoA] image by António Martins-Tuválkin, 6 Oct 2023

shield Azure with base barruly wavy of Argent and Azure, an embattled quadrangular tower Argent with windows Gules between two almond branches Or flowered Argent in pale. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case serifed letters "FREGUESIA DE TORRE DE MONCORVO".
Meaning:
As "torre" means "tower" in Portuguese, these arms are partly canting for part of the toponym. Also represented is the local importance of almond growing and a local river — this might be either the River Sabor, which is makes up the western and northwestern boundaries of the commune, or, less likely, the local small creek Ribeira da Alfarela.
