Coat of arms of Žirovnica - Image by Željko Heimer, 22 October 2002
The root of the word "acorns" (žiri) is clearly visible,
but it sems that there are no acorns in symbols used by this
municipality either. The coat of
arms of Žirovnica is shown on the
municipal
website It is green, bordered in yellow with the chief edge
forming an open book, with five yellow feathers placed 3 and 2.
The feathers are
arranged as in the honeycomb as a tribute to the oldest Slovene
beekeping organization, formed in Žirovnica, and also as a tribute to the famous local
apiculturist Anton Janča.
