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. 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.
Blazon
Per fess or and gules, embattled. In chief a demi lion rampant issuant sable, langued gules. In base three golden bricks 2 and 1 garnished or. For a crest: out of a ducal coronet a lion as in the arms.
