Coat of arms

Shield Azure, in base a cinematograph Argent garnished Sable, in centre a crescent recumbent Or topped by a 6-point star of the same and a royal coronet of the same. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with inscription in black initials: "CONCEIÇÃO - FARO"
Meaning:
Crescent and star probably are attributes of Our Lady of Conception, the local patron saint. The cinmatograph is alluding to local film festivals.
