Presentation of Santervás de Campos

The municipality of Santervás de Campos (130 inhabitants in 2012; 5,411 ha) is located in the north of Valladolid Province, on the border with Palencia Province, 90 km from Valladolid. The municipality is made of the villages of Santervás de Campos (capital), Villacreces (deserted since 1981) and Zorita de la Loma (3 inh.).

The symbols are described as follows:

Coat of arms: Per bend sinister, 1. Gules a scallop argent ensigned with a sword and a staff of the same per saltire, 2. Azure a nave argent. The shield surmounted with a Royal Spanish crown.

The symbols were designed by Rubén Ojeda (El Norte de Castilla, 14 October 2012).
The colours of the flag represent the crusaders, as well as Florida and Puerto Rico, two countries conquered by Juan Ponce de León.
The sword and the staff represent St. Gervasius and St. Protasius, respectively. Gervasius was beheaded while Protasius was impaled.
The scallop recalls that Santervás de Campos is located on the Way of St. James.
The nave represents the crusaders and discoverers born in the village.
