Origin/meaning

The arms show that the village is situated between two forested hills. The base symbolises the Nieste river, which historically was important for trout fishing, hence the trout in the base. The river also drove for many centuries a papermill, which is symbolised by the sheet of paper in the upper half of the arms.
