Origin/meaning=

The arms were adopted on November 20, 1944.

The tree is taken from the old arms of the Emmental area, and has been used since 1674. The village was part of the Trachselwald district of the Emmental region, and wald means forest and the arms can also be seen as canting.

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

Literature: Wappenbuch des Kantons Bern, 1981.
