* CABRIO: The Cabrio symbolizes the boots and spurs, and for this reason it was granted as an adornment of the shield to the Knight who was wounded from the combat in his legs.
* TURTLE: The Turtle is one of the most noble figures, being a symbol of the Knight who retires late from combat, facing his enemy until the last moment, trusting in his own strength.
* GOAT: The Goat symbolizes one who wins through politics rather than war.
* HERON: The Heron represents Prudence in preventing dangers, guarding against them.
* WINDMILL: The Windmills and their Wheels are a symbol of Obedience, because they face the violence of the current and obey the movement that it prints.
* EMPIRE: The Head of the Empire, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Ghibelline party (derived from the Hohenstaufen, Lords of Waibling) who were loyal to the Emperor.
