The Gonfalon

From the site of Ukrainian Heraldry:
"On the 6th of March 1997 village council session confirmed the gonfalon by resolution No. 59: in an blue square width five white lilies, four from them - on corners, and fifth - in centre, circled by yellow contour of fortification buildings."

Coat of Arms

from the site of Ukrainian Heraldry

From the site of Ukrainian Heraldry:
"On the 6th of March 1997 village council session confirmed the modern emblem by resolution No. 59: in an azure field is argent lily flower, around which or contour of fortification buildings. City appellation and water symbolizes heraldic representation of aquatic lily flower. A lily comes forward also as cleanness symbol and bloom."

I assume that this is a local, specific fortification, heraldicized.

The Town

From the site of Ukrainian Heraldry:
"The first mention refers to the XIV century. The name, probably, has its origin from fording a river."
