Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on August 7, 2020.
The arms refer to the local abbey, founded by Duke Ratibor I of Pommern for the Benedictan Order in 1153, which played a major role in the local history. The abbey was abandoned in 1535. The abbey ruins are still a tourist attraction in the village.
