Wappen von/Blason de Lyssach

The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums 1914-1960

The State Archives of Bern indicated in 1922 that there was also an older coat of arms known for Lyssach, with three black lozenges in pale. As these arms were 'not pleasing to the eye' the State Archives proposed the arms above.

Literature : Wappenbuch des Kantons Bern, 1981.
