On 1 January 2016 Autafond became part of Belfaux, and a new emblem was introduced.

The flag of Belfaux was based on the armorial of Fribourg canton dated 1981.
The problem is that the new flag of Belfaux, made after the fusion with the
commune of Cutterwil, has been adopted this same year, but the fusion has been
achieved in 1977. This was misleading as Cutterwil doesn't appear anymore in
the armorial, but the flag of Belfaux in this same book is still the old one,
and not the one adopted after the fusion.
The new flag of Belfaux
features a beech-tree in the shape of a leave making the flag canting as
Belfaux comes from Bellus Fagus (fine beech-tree).
