Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided by a Markian chequered bar into blue and golden (0 yellow). Above in the blue field is a silver (=white) fleur de lis, below is a plain field.
Meaning:
According to source the bar is symbolizing the former rulers, the counts of Mark, the meaning of the fleur de lis is unknown. It had been probably just a distinguishing mark of the village.
