Haparanda, which is situated on the Westside of the Torne river, became a town in 1842, when Finland and those parts of West Bothnia and Lapponia which lies east of the river had become Russian in 1809. The then borough (köping) got its arms in a royal letter in 1828, and the from a heraldic point of view not entirely good composition bears a clear impression of the 19th Century, though a slight adjustment was made in the beginning of the 1970's. The arms were registered in 1977. | Haparanda, which is situated on the Westside of the Torne river, became a town in 1842, when Finland and those parts of West Bothnia and Lapponia which lies east of the river had become Russian in 1809.
