The arms show the letters LUGA and are simply the short name of the city. In time many (bizarre) explanations have been given for the letters, but without any historical evidence. The name "Lugano" derives from the Latin and means "holy wood" or forest in general. | The arms show the letters LUGA and are simply the short name of the city.
