Torshall.jpg

Official blazon

I fält av silver ett från en av en vågskura bildad blå stam uppskjutande svart städ med röd sockel, över vilket en ur ett blått moln i övre vänstra sköldhörnet framkommande röd arm svingar en svart slägga.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on October 21, 1949.

The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, known since 1378. The arms show the patron saint, St. Olav of Norway in a Viking ship. Later seals show the same saint sitting on a throne, similar to Norrköping.
