Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted in 1903.
The arms are based on the old seal of the Skast district, known since 1556. The seal showed a linden tree, to which two anchors were added. The anchors symbolise the fact that the city is one of Denmarks larger harbours.
Between 1892 and 1903 the city used different arms, with a steamer and a dolphin.
