Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted March 22, 1996.
The arms are based on the legend of Saint Catherine and are based on a document issued to the village by King Matej in 1465.
The arms on the document from 1465 (source) |
The oldest known seals of the village date from 1602. Images of these seals can be found until 19th century documents. The seals show a kneeling woman in long clothing. On the right side of the figure in the shield grows a flower and on the left a tree.
