Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on January 11, 1999.

The Tau-cross is the symbol of St. Anthony, the local patron saint since 1956. The wheat-ears refer to th elong agricultural history of the village, known as an estate farm since 1097.

The urn refers to the archaeological finds from Roman times and the Roman road that passed near the village.
