"Hollolan vaakuna on Carolus Lindbergin suunnittelema. Hollolan vaakunan punaisella pohjalla on kultainen hirvenpää, hirvenpään alla kultainen ruiskuhilas. Hirvenpään yläpuolella on yksi hopeinen naularisti ja ruiskuhilaan molemmin puolin kahdet naularistit. Heraldisesti hopea on arvokkaampaa kuin kulta. Hollolan keskiaikaisen kirkon oven raudoituksessa on kuvattu pyhimykseksi myöhemmin tulleen Ardennien piispaksi myöhemmin tulleen Hubertuksen hirvenmetsästystä esittävä kohtaus. Koska katolilaisessa perinteessä Pyhän Hubertuksen kaltaista uskoon tuloa metsästysretkellä kuvaa myös marttyyri Pyhän Eustachiuksen legenda, ei ole täyttä varmuutta siitä, kumpaa vaakuna tosiasiassa kuvaa."
