Armorial of France - Wikipedia

This gallery of French coats of arms shows the coats of arms of the Provinces, Regions, and Departments of France and certain French cities. They are used to visually identify historical and present-day regions, as well as cities, within France.

National

edit

Unlike the tricolor flag, the coat of arms of the French Republic is not enshrined in Article 2 of the Constitution of France. However, diplomatic emblems are used. The first version was created in 1905 and later used to represent France at the United Nations, but it still needs to update. A second version, featuring an uncommon pelta (bouclier en forme de croissantPeltast#pelte) shield and oak leaves, is today widely used by the Presidency of the Republic and by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.[1][2] This version appears on the cover of French passports.
