Official blazon
Sköld medelst klyvning och tinnskuredelning kvadrerad i blått och guld, med i fält 1 trenne till ett gaffelkors sammanställda blixtar av guld och i fält 2 ett blått avslitet stenbockshuvud.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 9, 1955.
Berga received city rights in 1279 but never developed into a proper city. The division line refers to the city rights. The ibex (stenbock) refers to the Stenbock family, which played a major role in the local history in the 16th century.
The thre elightning bolts refer to the power stations in Bro, Åby and Åbyfors.
