I blått fält en av en vågskura bildad stam och på en därifrån uppskjutande stång en sjuflikig kyrkfana åtföljd till höger av en kräkla och till vänster av ett halster, allt av guld.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 17, 1948.
The arms are known since 1556, but are probably even older. The arms show a banner and a crosier for the Archdiocese of Lund, to which the area historically belonged. The grill is the symbol of St. Lawrence, the local patron saint, as well as the patron saint of Lund.
