Origin/meaning
The arms are a combination of the two former arms.
The arms were based on the winning proposal of a referendum, in which three proposals could be chosen:
- the two former arms placed in a vertically divided shield
- A shield divided by a bar dancetty to symbolise the alps, with a star in each half for the two villages
- A shield with two agricultural tools, a sun and a mountain in base.
The winning proposal was then changed in a horizontally divided shield for more aesthetic reasons.
