The heraldic description of the coat of arms: “Within the azure field there is a golden pine with four roots that are interlaced with a silver unsheathed sword. The sword is placed aflat.” The settlement was founded as a military town and the sword which is interlaced with pine’s root shows it. The pine also remembers about pine forests of the Karelian Isthmus where the town is located.

The coat of arms was registered in the State Heraldic Register of the Russian Federation under the No. 717, and the flag was registered under the No. 718.
