Symbols of the municipality
Coat of Arms
On the Spanish shield, in the field of the heraldic green color of freedom, hope, health, in the middle of the shield is a full disk of the sun. This arrangement of the sun is called "Midday" and means perfection, flowering. However, the sun is depicted without such an indispensable sign as rays, in heraldry it is called "The sun in the eclipse." The icon of brown coal is shown on the solar disk, which gives fire - a symbol of heat, life, light, activity, energy. In this case, the βSunβ is one of the manifestations of light - Fire. Gold color indicates greatness, respect, wealth. Coal is depicted in black - the color of constancy, modesty. The sun and coal are accompanied by two golden ears of wheat - the personification of agriculture. In river heraldry, ponds usually occupy the fourth (belt) lower part of the shield, but in our case, given the abundance of rivers and ponds in which the ancient, southern, relict plant - Lotus - a symbol of life and happiness - was preserved, we allotted the upper lotus and ponds ( place of honor - chest). Silver color - purity, innocence, wisdom, joy. Blue is the color of fame, honor, fidelity and sincerity [6] .
