Origin/meaning

The arms were registered on February 17, 2006.

The arms most likely refer to the Battle of Kulm in 1813, between the armies of France and the anti-Napoleon Allies (Austria, Prussia, Russia) near the village. The battle was won by the allies and thus probably Nikè, the goddess of victory was chosen as a symbol.
