Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 10, 2005.

The hops refer to the old tradition of beer-brewing, and the plough symbolizes both forging of swamp ore (from which the name of the town originates) and the new possibilities: Rudiskiai became the local administrative centre relatively recently, after World War II.
