Origin/meaning
The arms are granted on June 2, 1993.
The arms are based on the 19th century seal of the village and show a canting pear tree (hruška). The name and the arms are based on a legend of the existence of a pear tree on a nearby hill that had magical powers. The tree no longer exists but it gave rise to the towns name.
Literature: Kartous and Vrteľ, 2000
