The arms show the local patron saint, St. Peter, holding a key as his symbol. The image already appeared from the oldest known seal of the village (known since 1350). Only in the 19th century two crossed keys were also used as arms, as a symbol for St. Peter. The municipality however continues the use of St. Peter. | |||
