The arms show the local patron saint, St. George, killing a dragon. The saint first appeared on the local seal from 1714, but there are indications that a similar seal was used in 1701. Later seals all showed the saint. The colours were only determined in 1984 (arms above right), and were shown by [[Otto Hupp|Hupp]] in the 1920 as shown above left. | The arms show the local patron saint, St. George, killing a dragon.
