I sköld en fors av silver, utformad som en högerstråle, bildad ovan av en vågskura och nedan av en rak skura samt gränsande ovan mot blått och nedan mot svart.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1961 and were confirmed in 1974.
The arms show in a special way the local hydropower, a river falling over a black rock. The use of the waterfall in the Rönne river for the local paper factory already dates from 1573.
