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

The Świńka dynasty possesses one of the oldest recorded 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, heroically gifted her a giant boar that he had hunted down in the forest. The queen rewarded him with the coat of arms (though this was long before Western heraldry as we know it developed), the village of Świny (German: Swinehausen, both referring to pigs) in Silesia, and her daughter. The boar's head in the field and blonde maiden on the crest allude to this tale.
