Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 2010.
The oldest seal is known from 1674 and has been in use at least until 1737. It already showed an apple tree and the letter B, the initial of the town. It also showed a coal-makers hut. Charcoal making was an important activity at the time in the village. The meaning of the apple tree is not clear; it may have been derived from the Latin Pomus, and thus a canting symbol. It may also simply refer to the local apple orchards, or both. In the 19th and 20th century the local seals only used the name of the village.
In 1956 the arms below were proposed, but never granted.
 The proposal from 1956. |
