Uetikon am See

Argent a Pine Tree Vert trunked and eradicated Gules and ensigned with letters OVV Sable.

There is no explanation about the meaning of those symbols. They appear for the first time on a big bell of 1684 and have been kept for the design of the municipal arms, unfortunately the meaning has been lost in the course of years.

The people of Uetikon am See seem to be quite fond of this symbol - their webpage has the OVV as background on all the 
subpages.
