The coat of arms is "Vert a thunderbolt or piercing a millstone argent".
I am not sure to what the charges refer. The millstone certainly refers to the modern mill with large siloes in the center of the village. The thunderbolt might suggest some power industry, but I was unable to locate what it would be.
