- (sk) V červenom štíte zlatobradý, zlatým krížovým prstencom nimbovaný strieboodetý svätý Bartolomej, v pravej ruke so zlatým nožom a v ľavej so zlatou, cez predlaktie prevesenou stiahnutou kožou.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 8, 1994.
The arms are based on the only known seal of the village, dating from 1688. The saint is St. Bartholomew, the local patron saint. According to legends he was skinned alive and beheaded so is often depicted holding his flayed skin or the curved flensing knife with which he was skinned.
Literature: Kartous and Vrteľ, 2000
