{{Main|Coat of arms of Cusco}}
The [[Coat of arms of Cusco]] was officially adopted in 1986 and is used by the city, [[Cusco Province|province]], and [[Department of Cuzco|region]] of Cusco. The coat of arms incorporates elements from both Inca and Spanish heraldry. Historically, the city's arms included a golden castle on a red field with eight condors surrounding it. The modern design, officially adopted in 1986, features the [[Sol de Echenique]], a golden sun emblem, as the central element, symbolizing the city's connection to its Inca heritage.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Angles Vargas |first1=Víctor |title=Historia del Cusco Colonial Tomo I |date=1988 |publisher=Industrial Gráfica S.A |location=Lima |author-link=Víctor Angles Vargas }}</ref>
