Province : Banská Bystrica
District (okres) : Zvolen
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted in 1977, but are much older.
The arms show the cross of Hungary, indicating that the arms date from the late 13th century. To distinguish the arms from the Hungarian cross, the base of the cross was changed and the colours were altered.
The arms in the Coffee Hag albums +/- 1930 |
