Arms of Ulfborg-Vemb

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially registered in 1978.

The arms show a heron, as there is a large heron colony in the municipality. The reeds refer to the large areas covered with reeds near the Nissum fjord. The reed has been used traditionally to make straw and straw roofs.
