+===Origin/meaning===
-====Origin/meaning====
 The arms were officially granted in 1942.
 The crozier and the two geese symbolise St. Martin of Tours. This is an unusual symbolism for the saint, who is normally shown cutting his cloak in two halves. According to legend, Martin was reluctant to become bishop, which is why he hid in a stable filled with geese. The noise made by the geese betrayed his location to the people who were looking for him. The arms thus show the crozier as a symbol for the bishop together with the geese.
