Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on December 16, 1986.

The arms are based on the original Romanic name of the village, which can be translated as 'the place where one can cross diferent branches of the river'. This is simulated by the different bends in the arms.

Literature : Köfler and Beimrohr, 1995
