Grøn grunn strødd med sølv dropar.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on April 4, 1986.
The arms show water droplets as a symbol for the water and rivers in the municipality, as well as for the hydropower plant which was founded in 1915. The plant has brought prosperity to the village since. The green colour of the field symbolises the agriculture.
Literature : Norwegian Municipal Network; Norske Kommunevåpen, Kommunalforlaget, 1987.
