The distinguished surname Robleda is a proud sign of a rich and ancient ancestry.

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto.

Motto: De long travail, heureuse recompense
Motto Translation: From hard work, come great rewards.
