Boningen

BONINGEN

Canton : Solothurn

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on May 3, 1941.

The meaning or origin of these arms I don't know. They were already used on the seal of the village in 1819. The village also used the stick and rudder as arms prior to 1941, but in undefined colours. The colours are derived from the arms of the Canton.

Variations of the arms in the Kaffee Hag albums 1914-1960
