Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on April 7, 1939.

The two wavy bends symbolise the valley as well as the streams in the municipality. They also form the letter V, which is the initial of the oldest name of the village, Vilentspach (14th century).

Literature : Tschudi-Schümperlin, 1941
