Russian	В волнисто скошенном справа золотом и зеленью неровными, уменьшающимися к низу волнами поле - бревенчатая изба с одним окном и двухскатной крышей переменных цветов, сопровождаемая тремя прямыми равноконечными вырубными крестами, просеченными ромбом (по одному - в верхних углах; правый из которых - золотой в зелени, а левый зеленый в золоте и одним золотым в зелени внизу).

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 14, 2013.

The division of the shield is a canting element, kovera means curved in Finnish (as in this part of Karelia Finnish is still spoken). It also refers to the rivers in the area, and the division of the terrain.

The log cabin is a symbol for the old wooden buildings that can still be found in the Nurmolitsy village.

The crosses are typical for the decoration of the (wooden) churches in the region.
