Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 31, 1938.
The arms are based on the oldest known seal of the city, dating from the 14th century. Although the tree is not specified, it is presumed that it is a beech, as the name of the town may have been derived from the Slavic word for beech.
The wavy bar symbolises the Grube Lake. The gold refers to the once prosperous trading city (14th-16th century).
