Official blazon

Sinisessä kentässä kolme hopeista, hopeapunailiekkistä masuunia vieretysten, tyvessä hopeinen punavaruksinen lohi.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on December 31, 1951.

The arms show the symbol of St. Lawrence, the grill. Before the Reformation St. Lawrence was the patron saint of the local church. The haselnuts in the arms are a symbol for the forests, rich in hazel trees in the municipality.
