The arms are used since 1870, but the falcon has a much longer history. In 1630 the mayor of nearby Slangerup introduced the ferry over the Roskilde Fjord. His name was Falch Olsen and he lived in a mansion named Falkenborg. The name was also used for the small village around it, which in 1660 became a city and the new name Frederikssund.
In 1987 the arms were simplified, the rose branches became roses, and the colours were changed.
