===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were officially adopted in 1953. | |||
The arms show a pear tree, which is derived from the name of the mountain close to Oberwil, the Holzbirliberg. The name is explained as Holz-Birnen-Berg or wood-pear-mountain. Thus the arms can be considered canting. | The arms show a pear tree, which is derived from the name of the mountain close to Oberwil, the Holzbirliberg.
