Coat of Arms

[COA of Roan]
image by Tomislav Šipek, 15 December 2015

Blazon: Blått dekket med sølv fiskegarn. In English: Azure fretty argent.
Approved by the royal resolution of 27 March 1987 after a drawing by Einar H. Skjervold. [c2j88]
The NGW site states "The arms show a part of a fishing net placed over the shield. The arms simply indicate the importance of fishing for the community. Several different arms were designed, all with fisheries as the main theme, but the council finally chose for the design above, which is rather unique among Civic Heraldry."
