Coat of arms (crest) of Støvring

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted in 1977.

The arms show a tree trunk between two ox-horns. The horns are taken from the old seal of Hornum herred. The trunk is a canting symbol, as the name means an area with tree trunks.

Literature: Achen, 1982; Zeuthen, 2000
