Coat of arms of Gmina Juchnowiec Kościelny is one of the symbols of the Juchnowiec Kościelny municipality in Białystok County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland. It was designed by Tadeusz Gajl and Henryk Seroka, and established on 18 April 2013.[1]
Appearance and symbolism
editThe coat of arms depicts on a red shield an image of Mother Mary of Juchnowiec with a gold crown over the Child, between three silver roses with gold centres and green leaves; two on the sides, one at the base. This is a deprecated coat of arms of the Włoszek family, in which a simplified image of Mother Mary of Juchnowiecka is inserted in place of the two swords and the upper rose.[2]
History
editFrom 1990 to 2013, the municipality used a coat of arms, which was a full version of the coat of arms of the Włoszek family, with a helmet, a jewel and labrys, with distorted roses and a ribbon with the name of the municipality.[3] In the course of the proceedings for the design of the new coat of arms, the municipality announced a competition, which was unsuccessful.[4]
The current coat of arms was designed by Tadeusz Gajl, while its historical concept was developed by Henryk Seroka.
