Fony
(The County of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén)
The coat-of-arms: in a pear-shaped shield gules issuing from the vert in the pale three symmetric vine tendrils proper crossed are borne. The tendrils have four, two and again four vine leaves vert from which one is placed on the top successively. At the fess the vine tendril bears bunches of grapes or. The leaves and the bunches are borne symmetrically. In the chief the date 1809 and the inscription are borne.
The symbols of the coat-of-arms represent the one-time vine culture of the village of Fony, focusing on the vine as a plant. The colour of the bunch refers to the golden shine of the vine and to the wealth that is the result of it. The symmetric tendrils form a fish, thus referring to the village which has a strong connection with the nourishment of Christ.
The base vert is a reminder of the origin of the name of the village, which - according to etymology – meant matting or thick wood.
