The arms were officially granted on May 12, 1792 and re-granted on June 19, 2002.

In early 20th century another variant was used due to the inexact description of historian Jan Obst (the original was not available at the time): without base, with a laurel branch instead of a tree, and with counterchanged positions of the laurel and sword.
