Coat of arms of Ljubno - Image by Željko Heimer, 26 February 2006
The coat of arms of Ljubno is:
Azure a mullet of eight or.
Stanič says that Emperor Frederic III confirmed the civic rights of Ljubno and granted a coat of arms to the town in 1470. It was a golden star on a blue shield. Pichegger shows an eight-pointed faceted star very much like the one in the current coat of arms. Stanič shows also the municipal seal of 1936, made of a six-pointed star in an oval shield.
