Zaremba is a Polish coat of arms. It was used by several szlachta (noble) families in the times of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

History[]

The first historical record of the Zaremba coat of arms appears on the bishop of Poznań's seal in 1301 CE. In the 12th century, the Zaremba clan itself founded the town and endowed the church of Tuliszkow.^[2] Tuliszkow would become the seat of the Zaremba clan and in 1450, Mikolaj Zaremba, castellan of Leczyca, built the St. Vitus church, which still stands today.^[3]

The Zaremba coat of armrs is mentioned by Romain Gary in his novel Promise at dawn.^[4]
