Świńka (Polish for "Boar") is a Polish coat of arms. It was used by several szlachta (noble) families.

History

Świńka is one of the oldest coats of arms in Poland. According to legend, the history of the Świńka family began in 712, when a certain Biwoj, squire to Queen Libusza, gave her a giant boar that he had hunted down in the forest. The queen rewarded him with the coat of arms, the village of Świny (Swinehausen) in Silesia, and her daughter.
