Blazon: På blå grunn tre sølv flammer i skrå rekkje. In English: Azure three
flames argent in bend.
Approved by the royal resolution of 15 May 1987 after a drawing by Inge
Rotevatn. [c2j88]
The
municipal site explains that the design was prepared for the celebration of
150 years of municipal legislation. The artist Inge Rotevatn was hired to
prepare the design and among the three final designs the municipal
administration chose the design of "three eldars" (the last word being ancient
word meaning fire in Norwegian and fire warrior in Norse).
