Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on September 28, 1990.

Traditionally mining has played a major role in the area and has been of great economic importance for Meråker. The mining cart as a symbol for the municipality was thus an obvious decision. The cart is officially described as a cart, not a mining cart.
