[In 1941 the Meienberg commune changed its name to Sins, which is derived from the old German sind (way, path, footbridge). It alludes to the bridge over the Reuss river.
The three flowers on the emblem represent a bunch of flowers, which is called Meien in vernacular. So the emblem was canting with Meien and Berg (mountain) (source)]
