Well, it means: "sagrado azul". I don't know the origin of the expression.
You know, this is one of the few cases where we can say it in english from French. In english it would be: "sacred blue"

sacré bleu
A stereotypical french curse that is actually never used by real french people. Same as the mustache and the beret - something only non-french people think is typical of the French.
Holy cow, holy ****. Originates from the French language. Also can be found as: sacré bleu or sacrebleu.
The French equivalent of saying "Holy ****."

It mean's sacred blue, and is a reference to the Virgin Mary. It's considered offensive in French Catholic circles.

it's "Sacre Bleu" (Holy Blue) a reference to the royal blue blood of the French monarchy supposedly coming from God.
It would be the French equivalent to "bloody....."

Sacré bleu, literally "holy blue," a euphemism for sacré Dieu, "holy God."
