When these arms were created in 1995/2010, Ferreira do Zêzere was already a town, and had been for centuries. It was given
back then a mural crown with three visible towers due to a specific read of the 1991 about local flags in Portugal [pt-_law.html#dl_53-91].
For a reason I don´t know (and probably specified nowhere), in 2023 a different reading of the same law opted for four visible towers instead.
