Fir cross
Golden pine cross in the coat of arms of Nilsiä
The fir cross is a rare common figure in the Heraldry and after fir section designated cross . All cross arms terminate in stylized fir twigs, similar to a pile pole or a pole Goepel . It has not been proven whether the abundance of forests and religion merged into one symbol here. The fir cut on which it is based first appeared in the coat of arms of Finland in 1949 in the municipality of Varpaisjärvi in confused colors . The coat of arms of Marnach in Luxembourg is also divided with the fir cut. The Finnish municipality of Nilsiä , the Austrian municipality of Schlaiten in Tyrol (here in mixed up colors with diagonal division) and Hunding in Lower Bavaria have the pine cross in their coat of arms.
