Centurión

Italiano  English  Portugûes  Deutsch

There are different Centurión houses in Spain. From very remote centuries it was known and highly regarded. Historians rightly note that not all lineages of this surname have a common origin. We found it in Guipúzcoa. The oldest weapons are those indicated in: Repertoire of blazons of the Hispanic community - letters ABC-CH Vicente De Cadenas and Vicent Instituto Salazar y Castro. Those from Guipúzcoa bring: In gules, a gold paté cross. Others bring: In gold, a checkered band of gules and silver in three orders. The study of the family heraldic shield "speaks" to us of those who formed the origin of the C. family, since that was its function, that of manifesting its differential elements to others, since the inclusion of the cross element is the first figure used in heraldry and its meaning is the relationship of its members with the faith and the expansion of Christianity. The enamels of the C. weapon proclaim the following values: the Gules is the symbol of strength, power, fervent love for God and neighbor, such is the meaning of this enamel, to which we should add the desire of dominance, courage, audacity, strength and magnanimity, a high percentage of this type of family shield was given by acts of war.
