Coat of Arms
The blazon of the municipal coat of arms is Or a Halberd Argent handled of the first on a Bend Gules.
The coat of arms shows a silver halberd with a golden handle. The halberd is placed on a red diagonal beam, itself placed on a golden background. It is not clear why this hitting weapon is included in the coat of arms, but the name of the village is thought to go back to the word hitting.
