List of Irish counties' coats of arms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Each county council in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland has a coat of arms. There are no official county flags. Flags with the GAA county colours serve as defacto county flags. Under heraldic law in England (and later in Ireland), "counties" cannot be granted arms, only the corporate bodies that govern them. Accordingly, although arms and devices were associated with counties from the eighteenth century onward there were no official grants until the establishment of county councils in 1889.
