Våben af Hadsund

Origin/meaning:
The arms were granted in 1937.

The arms show mainly the railway bridge built in 1904. The two parts symbolise the two former municipalities. The four waves symbolise the four villages in the municipality, Skelum, Visborg, Vive and Hadsund. The crescent or new moon, symbolises the new municipality, the stars are a symbol of longevity. The bridge was replaced in 1976 by a new bridge, but the arms have not changed.

Literature : Achen, 1982
