Municipality of Candasnos, outlined

Party per fess, the base per pale: 1 Or, a hurt; 2 Gules and 3 Argent, over both a cross of Malta counterchanged.

Coat of arms of the municipality of Candasnos, Huesca, designed by Valeriano Labara Ballestar, approved by the Government of Aragon. In [Labara Ballestar, V. C.; 2019; page 341] it states, «the Maltese cross, with its tinctures counterchanged, aims to highlight the town's history, which has been secularly linked to the Royal Monastery of Sijena». The Royal Monastery of Santa María de Sijena is a 12th-century monastery located in Huesca, commissioned by Queen Sancha of Castile, the consort of Alfonso II of Aragon. Established as a monastery for Hospitaller nuns, its construction began around 1183 and it was consecrated in 1188 by Bishop Ricardo of Huesca. Although it was a double monastery housing both nuns and friars, it was governed by prioresses from the very beginning. It has been an honor for me to outlined this version for Valeriano Labara.
