Origin/meaning:
The arms were officially registered in 1984.
The main part of the arms symbolise the Viking fortress in Aggersund, a ring fortress with 12 barracks. The waves symbolise the Aggersund, the part of the Limfjord that divides the municipality into two parts.
[Before 1984 the municipality used the arms of the town of Løgstør, designed in 1900.
