Overview

The coat of arms of Kapela at the official website is quartered first and fourth gules, second argent a Latin cross sable in bend, and third vert a corn ear or issuant. The coat of arms is probably unofficial. A variant of this arms was also in use, with the cross being red upright set in the corner of the field while the field contained the depiction of the local church in a green low hill.
They seem to have been using a similar coat of arms with some differences, at least yet in 2007, as may be seen from a charter issued by the community here.
Altogether like the current but the cross being red upright set in the corner of the field while the field contained the depiction of the local church in a green low hill.   I assume that the church was removed after the suggestion from the central authorities, since we already have way to many coat of arms showing churches. Weather this means that the new coat of arms is closer to be approved, it is still hard to tell.
