Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on April 22, 2008.

The arms show a waterlily, as the name is derived from a Slavic word meaning 'people linving next to water'. The blue also refers to the water, the gold to the agriculture. The division line symbolises the nine former municipalities that merged together.
