Origin/meaning

Before 1940 the town used arms as shown above. In the upper red field was a golden winged wheel symbolizing the railway junction and station, the lower half was vertically divided into two parts. In the right blue field was a silver blade and below it a silver five-pointed star, which symbolized Šunychl, and in the left green field was a spade, symbolizing Kopytov, a village which was annexed to the town in the late 19th century.

Seal from around 1900.
