MUNKEDAL
Province (Landskap): Bohuslän
County (Län): Västra Götalands län
Additions : 1967 Ödeborg (partly); 1974 Svarteborg (1952 Bärfendal), Sörbygden (1952 Hede, Krokstad, Sanne)
Official blazon
I blått en gåspenna korsad med en pappersrulle, allt av silver.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on April 11, 1983.
After the merger the new municipality wanted to have a monk (Munke) in its arms, but that was not accepted. It was finally decided to use two main attributes of monks, a piece of paper and a quill in the arms. These symbols also refer to the importance of paper factories in the municipality.
