Origin/meaning
The medieval seals of Halmstad showed a helmet with sheaves of straw. The straw (halm) is certainly meant to be canting, and this can also be the case with the helmet as such, as the old German name of the town is Helmstade.
 The seal from the early 14th century |
The full arms were granted to the town by King Christian of Denmark in 1603 as in those days Halland was Danish. The heart is taken from the Danish National arms, the crown symbolises the royal status of the city.
 The arms as shown by Liljeblad, 1878 |
 The arms in the Kaffe Hag album +/- 1935 |
 The arms on a tin (?), image form Facebook |
Literature: Nevéus and de Waern, 1992
