Shield Argent on a craggy hill Sable garnished Or charged with an oxcart Argent garnished Gules, in chief a propeller Azure garnished Or in bend.
Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and short white scroll, in Bénard Guedes style, reading
in black upper case serifed letters "PINHANÇOS".
Meaning:
The symbolism of these arms pertains to local orography and history of transportantion; the propeller namely refers to the local airfield,
even though its runway extends considerably into the territory of neighbouring commune Santa Comba, where it is however not shown in the local arms.
