The two knives (Hapen in the local dialect) appear for the first time as a symbol for the village in 1591, as part of a decoration on the town hall. They appear in combination with a bunch of grapes in another decoration, dating from 1751. They also appear on the oldest known seal of the town, dating from the 17<sup>th</sup> century. The knives are used in the cutting of the grapes. Viniculture was the main source of income for the village. | The two knives (Hapen in the local dialect) appear for the first time as a symbol for the village in 1591, as part of a decoration on the town hall.
