Blazon: I sølv et svart bjørnehode, sett forfra. In English: Argent a bear
head caboshed sable.
Approved by the royal resolution of 1 March 1985 after a drawing by Truls
Nygaard. [c2j87]
The municipality used a design looking like a rectangular postmark or similar
mountaineering seal depicting a bear among some fir trees in a landscape, before
the adoption of the current arms. [c2j87] shows
the emblem. The book also explains that the bear head in the current design is
shown with a red tongue, following the medieval heraldic traditions.
