===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were granted on December 18, 1964. | The arms were granted on December 18, 1964. | ||
The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city of Kristianopel, which dates from 1647. The seal showed a lion holding a crown over the initials of the (Danish) King Christian IV, founder of the city. The same composition, but with two lions, can be seen in the arms of [[Kristianstad]]. To distinguish the arms of Jämjö the lion now holds the tree from the arms of the Blekinge province. | The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city of Kristianopel, which dates from 1647.
