Origin/meaningThe arms originally date from the middle of the 15th century. The original arms showed the local patron saint, St. Wenesclaus (Wenzel) on a horse, which is also seen on the seal from around 1900. Later the image gradually changed into a knight and finally to an undescribed mounted man holding a crosier.
