Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on February 2, 1979.

The arms show two wavy bends as the municipality is on a peninsula between two fjords, Oslofjord and Drammenfjord. At the same time the arms are based on the arms of the Huitfeldt family, who played a major role in the local history. The family used a single bend as arms. Literature:

Norwegian Municipal Network; Norske Kommunevåpen, Kommunalforlaget, 1987.
