Official blazon

I grønt et sølv tårn uten krenelering.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 9, 1976.

The arms show a chalk-oven, as chalk burning has been practised in the municipality from the Middle Ages until around 1800. There are still some original ovens visible in the municipality.
