Un scut triunghiular albastru cu marginile rotunjite, tăiat de un brâu undat de argint. În partea superioară se află două crengi de fag de aur, care se întretaie în partea de jos în săritoare. În partea inferioară se află un zid de argint, format din cinci rânduri de cărămizi, rostuite negru, cu trei merloane deasupra, cu o cruce treflată neagră, broșând pe mijlocul lui.
