The Cartaxo firegighters coat of arms is composed by the City Coat of Arms with 2 firefighters axes crossed and a torch in the back. The torch flame comes out on the top of the central tower of the crown. The city´s coat of arms has a rose in the middle probably representing Queen Saint Isabel that would have stopped here during a journey to a nearby Monastery.
