Shield Argent, an eradicated olive tree Vert fruited sable, in chief a Marian crown Azure gemmed Or. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with inscription in black capitals "MONTES DA SENHORA".
Meaning:
The commune's name means "Mountains of the Lady", which is probably St. Mary. Thus the crown is alluding to the commune's name giver.
