European Heraldry — Coats of Arms of 42 Countries


Discover the coats of arms, flags, and emblems used today by 42 European countries and their regional subdivisions. Modern symbols, rooted in centuries of heraldic tradition, that identify nations, Länder, autonomous communities, régions, and counties across the continent.

Coats of arms of European countries

Every European nation maintains official heraldic symbols used in state documents, government buildings, and international representation. From France's coat of arms to Spain's royal escutcheon, from Germany's federal eagle to Italy's emblem of the Republic, each emblem reflects the country's identity, its institutions, and its ties to a continental heraldic heritage.

Regional emblems across the continent

Below the national level, European heraldry lives on in regional symbols: German Länder, Spanish autonomous communities, French régions and départements, Italian regioni, and English counties. Click any country on the interactive map to explore its regional emblems down to the province or department level.
