Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 25, 1957.

The triple mount alludes to the last part of the name (Berg=hill).

The bird is taken from the Legend of St Botvid, which was killed at Rågö in the area. His relatives were then guided to the body by a white bird.

The ears of rye, symbolises the village Rågö (Råg=rye) and agriculture.

Literature: Andersson, 1994; image from Wikipedia (author Lokal Profil)
