Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on January 7, 2014.

The silver shield represents the old traditions and privileges of the locality, "witnesses" being the two lions; the crown suggests that the locality was documented in a royal privilige, however it had the right to hold a fair received in the year 1500.

The wall crown with three crenellated towers means that the locality has the rank of town.
