Blazon of Araranguá
The blazon of the municipality of Araranguá is one of the official symbols of the city. It was instituted on November 3rd 1971.
The blazon is made of a ecu, is surmounted by a mural crown with four turns, representing the city and the Comarque. Partly low, a white ribbon presents the inscription “April 3rd, 1880”, date on which the city was high with the row of municipality. Between the ribbon and the ecu, fish represent the Rio Araranguá which crosses the municipality. Branches of Rice and Manioc surround the ecu and symbolize the basic commodities of the local Agriculture. In the higher field, a surmounted toothed wheel of two chimneys represents the trade and industry. The various fields of the ecu are separated by two avenues, pointing out the nickname of the city, “ cidade das avenidas ” (“city of the French avenues”). In the lower field, a drawing of the sea and morro back conventos recall the tourist vocation of Araranguá.
