===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The arms were officially adopted in 1919. | |||
The meaning or origin of the griffin is not known. The griffin appears for the first time on a seal from 1783 and used until 1832. | |||
One explanation for the griffin is that it is a misinterpretation of the arms of the 15th century Leydier family in the village, which showed a dragon. | |||
