The new Slagelse municipality does not use arms.

Origin/meaning

The previous arms were officially registered in 1938.

Arms of Slagelse

The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, which is known from 1519, but the style indicates a 13th or 14th century origin. The arms show the patron saint, St. Michael with the dragon. The two towers symbolise the two churches in the city.
