Official blason
En röd sköld med en bjälke av silver, åtföljd ovan av ett kvarnhjul och nedan av en skära, båda av nämnda metall.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted in 1924.
The arms show a silver bar for the Mölndalsälv river, with in the upper half a water mill wheel for the many water mills in the river, and in the base a sickle as a symbol for agriculture.
In 2916 the city decided on a new logo, based on the arms and with the removal of the sickle, as the area is now highly urbanised. These 'arms' have not been officially granted (or applied for).
 The arms in the Kaffe Hag album +/- 1935 |
 The logo since 2016 |
