Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on March 11, 2008.

The cross of St. Andrew is derived from the arms and historical seal of Štreba, to which the village historically belonged. The area is an important tourist spot in summer and winter, which is symbolised by the sun and snow. The silver bend symbolises the local lake.

Literature : Alexy, 1988
