Description
Español: Escudo de la Arquidiócesis Católica de Tunja, Colombia.

Descripción heráldica:[1]

Trae cruz paté perfilada de plata, acompañada en primero y cuarto, de concha de oro puesta sobre bordones, en aspa, con calabazas, de lo mismo; en segundo y tercero, de rosa de oro sobre el todo, en escudón de oro, granada al natural.

Significado:

La Iglesia de Tunja siempre ha tenido como Patrono al Apóstol Santiago, El Mayor, titular de su Iglesia, primero parroquial y luego Catedral.

La cruz roja significa a Cristo Redentor, de quien Santiago El Mayor fue Protomártir entre los doce Apóstoles. Las conchas, con los bordones de peregrinos y sus calabazas, al propio tiempo que identifican al Patrono de Tunja, es el mismo de las Españas, como símbolos que son los peregrinos de Santiago de Compostela, son aquí símbolos de la Iglesia peregrinante diocesana “Ecclesia peregrinans”.

Las rosas están para representar a Nuestra Señora del Rosario de Chiquinquirá, Patrona de Colombia, cuyo “cuadro venerado” está en la Basílica de Chiquinquirá.

La granada representa la ciudad de Tunja, sede metropolitana, y recuerda la Batalla de Boyacá, que selló la independencia de la Nueva Granada.
