KRÁĽOVÁ NAD VÁHOM

Province : Nitra
District (okres) : Šaľa

Official blazon

(sk) Zo spodného okraja červeného štítu vyrastajúca strieborná, zlatovlasá kráľovná, pravicou si pridržiavajúca sponu zlatého plášťa, v nadol vystretej ľavici držiaca zlaté žezlo.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on August 10, 1998.

The arms show a canting Queen (kráľovná), which is taken from the oldest known seal of the village, dating from 1733. The seal probably does show Saint Elisabeth of Thuringia, a princess of Hungary, and not a queen. In the current arms she is described as an unnamed queen.

Literature: Kartous and Vrteľ
