The Camargue cross was created in 1926. Hermann Paul designed it at the request of the Marquis de Baroncelli. It embodies the three cardinal virtues: Faith, Hope, and Charity.

It symbolizes the "Camargue Nation" on its own, bringing together the guardians, the fishermen, and the Saintes-Maries - the three female disciples of Jesus who, according to legend, came to settle in the Camargue:

• the cross and its guardians' tridents express faith,
• the fishermen's anchor symbolizes hope,
• the heart represents the charity of the Saintes-Maries.
