I sølv tre grønne trekanter, 1-1-1.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on February 6, 1987.
The arms show three triangles of pine (gran) trees, making the arms canting. The name is supposedly derived from Granungar. The number three symbolises the three villages in the municipality; Harran, Bergsmo and Mediå.
